Virus Detected While Closing File: E:\PROGRAM FILES\bitorrent.exe Trojan horse PSW.Generic2.AOK
then i click "HEAL" and then AVG says "object was sucessfully healed"
but later on i cant use anymore bittorrent so i reinstalled

i think this is only a new problem both AVG & Bittorrent anyone knows how to fix this?what ever i do it really detect it

any idea on this matter? i think i will try other torrent dl'derAVG had an issue similar to this with a CD Ripping program I used briefly in the past. I never figured that ONE out.
Try an online scan with the suspect bittorrent file installed, either at Panda or Trend Micro's page. Better yet, do both, one at a time.You could also upload the file for multiple scans. http://virusscan.jotti.org/after i uninstalled the Bittorent i ran: Ad-aware (result: cleaned) ZA Anti-Spy(result: cleaned) AVG(result: cleaned) Spybot S&D(result: windows firewall override "immunized")
im sure that Bittorrent i got is genuine, coz since ive learn P2p i think i dl'd 4 times the BT from ZP and BT link not from other site also ive done "exception" from scanning but AVG will detect the system of my pc where some file of BT exist and it will get back to problems
Another AV? not an option for me but i get another dl'der and its Azurues and i think its ok and i clean all the files of BT from my pc
as of now im running the BitDefender Online Scan
BTW thanks to all of youWhy is another AV not an option?One properly functioning active antivirus is sufficient for most viruses. More than one causes problems. Each frequently thinks the other's scanning is a virus and this will slow down your system or worse. As to which one to use, that is up to you.

Bittorent stable VS. AVG so i CHOOSE AVG, i dropped Bitttorent so that nothing pop-up from AVG i replaced with Azureus and my Opera 9 also can downlod torrent file
ThanksAh, we went different directions there. I wasn't suggesting that anyone run more then one AV at a time. I was wondering why he selected AVG and what was stopping him from going with a different set of tools that will allow BT to function properly.
