Hi Harri, I sent you a message.
You've been using the program for close to five years with no problems, so if avast! suddenly complains about a trojan, I think a false positive is the logical explanation. Just a couple days ago, a false rootkit report had many avast! users, me included, doing full boot scans. It was fixed, with apologies, within a few hours.

I don't know how this plays into it, but I e-mailed this program to my work e-mail and it was snagged by the server Barracuda firewall/virus software. I have yet to install on either computer.

I got this back from Symantec today. Keeping up with false positives is like playing whack-a-mole.
