Solve : Stupid AVG 8?

Answer»

Once again this AVG has STARTED blocking one of my software programs from running. The Resident Shield
keeps telling me that I have a Trojan & am infected. This program has been running fine for the last six
months or more. Even when I add it to the exceptions option, it still won't let it run. What can I do about
this? I finally thought I had AVG tweaked to my liking & now it is acting stupid again. The vendor of the
software is positive it is not an issue from their end & has basically told me to change my anti-virus choice.
Is this just me or are other people having the same problems with AVG?Report it to AVG.

http://freeforum.avg.com/what is the program that you are trying to run that is being blocked by AVG?

Also within the AVG, go to tools --> advanced settings --> resident shield --> exceptions and click add path and add your program's location to the AVG to prevent AVG from bugging you it's a trojan or something if you're sure that AVG has a false positive on your program.

And you should report it so it can get fixed by the AVG guys if you're sure AVG has made an error on your program.The program is Mmm+. It's a context menu editor that has never given me any trouble. Like I said in my first post...I have added it to the exceptions list in Resident Shield about twenty different times...then when AVG
runs the next day it does it all over again. As for reporting the error to AVG, I have yet to get anything in the
way of a response. I finally got fed up & uninstalled AVG & installed Avast. So far so GOOD. Besides the fact
that AVG bogged my SYSTEM down at startup & took over 3 hours to complete it's scan ...Avast does the scan
in about 45 MINUTES & isn't giving me a headache. AVG 7.5 never seemed to be so bloated or cause any
problems...maybe some day they will figure out the 8.0 version is over rated. Got rid of mine, nothing but problems.AVG 8 has no problem yet on my end.
