I think I read recently that it considered the main JAWS command file to be a 
threat, and eliminated it.  The writer indicated it only happened once.

I have mixed feelings about Avast. I've had good luck with it catching problem 
files, but with JAWS it's not the most accessible tool I know. I actually had 
better luck with AVG on the accessibility front, but I hated being constantly 
nagged to upgrade or switch versions. Avast is querky at best when it comes to 
accessibility, but it has served me well, and what I like about it is that you 
can just sort of leave it alone. At least, that's been the case for me.
