Me too I put a video up so my clients could fix it http://www.calcpay.co.uk/vids/avgproblems.html AVG basically ignored me when I reported the False Positive. Clients were very understanding, quite a few said this is the last straw with AVG, as opposed to CalcPay! Kind regards Andrew Stirling

I've heard similar issues here with VFP applications moving to 'the vault'. :( I am SO glad I dumped AVG when my license expired earlier this year, after having nightmares trying to get a wireless printer to work. I understand their need to secure the system, but in the last year or so they have
