We had a similar problem over here on this machine after yesterday's update. It only occurred once or twice though, although we've been seeing a few emails come in that generate virus warnings as well since then. I'll be keeping an eye on it for the moment.

Avast False Positives Posted on Thursday, December 03, 2009 1:43:24 AM by BulletBobCo 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? ----- Original Message ----- From: "J Gurd" <j.gurd@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "jfw World List" <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, December 03, 2009 2:32 AM Subject: Avast detected Trojan in JawsI 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?
