[nvda] Re: avast/avg 8

yeah avg does put notification windows up if you get open the ui. alt tab 
usually gets rid of it all but then the only reason I have gone in there is to 
turn everything prity much off.
I havn't really done anything serious with avg, except tell it to leave me bee, 
and for  what I have left it to do have assumed it will do whatever its 
supposed to do like its been doing for the last 3 years.
Huristics in general can detect more stuff but have false alarms, I wander what 
would happen if you made those go bugger off.
I don't recomend that but it may just help.
