| 708964 | 2008-10-01 08:19:00 | Go back to AVG 7.5 SJ! | stu161204 (123) | ||
| 708965 | 2008-10-01 14:05:00 | What's strange is that I have AVG and WinAmp on three puters...all the same versions and my (SOYO/ATHLON) media unit is the only one to get this threat assessment. I'll stand by a while and see if things change on either the rest of my units or somehow my SOYO gets things straight. If not...then maybe I'll look into AVAST. |

| 708967 | 2008-10-01 22:06:00 | The Winamp false positive has been sorted with the latest AVG update. Dumping AVG for Avast might fix some things but Avast is noted for false positives. |

| 708968 | 2008-10-01 22:57:00 | Its just a false positive. Get a new version of AVGs def file or another AV. But other AVs occasionally give false positives too. | pctek (84) | ||
| 708969 | 2008-10-02 00:05:00 | Thanks guys..and gals....it's just precautionary on my behalf that I pulled all of WinAmp out...but I have trusted AVG for a few years and when it barks, I pay attention. | SurferJoe46 (51) | ||
