"AVG barely makes its apologies for a previous mistake when news comes that another file is mistaken for malware. By Asavin Wattanajantra, 18 Nov 2008 at 13:53 The AVG anti-virus program has once again mistaken files for malware, this time one connected to Adobe Flash. Some users on the AVG forums had reported that a file connected with Adobe Flash was detected by AVG scanning software as malicious. The software thought that the flash installation executable file was in fact the trojan PSW.Generic6.AQPD and requested its deletion." ---clip--- More at http://www.itpro.co.uk/608400/avg-mistakes-adobe-file-for-malware Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
