I will ask friends over here who use avast and who I know are members of
many lists,and if they have seen similar postings I will come back to you,
one friend has I know been happy so far although in the beginning he went
on a bit about something called "capture, only remember not to use
Kaspersky, it as I have mentioned stopped working with Jaws, the nasty thing
is it once did and so a good few of use using Jaws and wineyes got caught,
my laptop was wiped clean last year by a most viscious attack, I had 2
attacks one in June and another in July,second time I got in a professsional
engineer, and the 5 trojans were in 1 attachment, and 1 in Jaws acting as
if part of Jaws, I do not know your laws in USA but over here Manufactured
goods are not protected under the Sale of goods act, , reason an Mp told me
was "it might be thought to inhibit the creativity of Manufacturers I
contacted Ncc National Consumer Council and they agreed with me the law
regarding anti-virus should be changed, something about "unfair
LicenceAgreements, if you think about a car a table a washing machine are
all Manufactured goods,but I know not much about Legal matters I think
something called "extra statutory clauses are often used,I have not given
up dorothy

I have Avast free anti virus on a computer and have seen what appears to
be some false positive trojan horse hits. Has any other Avast users seen
this?

Subject: Avast detected Trojan in Jaws
I just went to open Outlook and Avast has come with an alert. Supposedly a
Trojan called Win32:Delf-MZG [Trj] was found at C:\Program Files\Freedom
Scientific\Shared\OOMHelper\1.0\OOMHelper.dll. This is clearly a JFW file
and I wondered if Avast was making an error due to inaccurate
classification. Has anyone else had this alert?
