Welll I USED to run AVG with another anti..and when using the OTHER anit AVG
ALWAYS picked up on a file that was created by the other anti and claimed it
was bug.exe and and I had to scan  to get rid of it. I got curious and kept
the temp file open and watched. The OTHER anti created something and then
abruptly removed it and the minute that happend AVG jumped in and said
virus....I scanned with panda AND with AVG and nothing showed up...so me
thinks maybe it's false reading???
