We've (20+) been fully clean under AVG for over 2 years. Those of us who venture where we shouldn't go (not me) get AVG warnings consistently but no infections.
Consumer Report rated them low on features and options, not on protection (which was OK). You might look at your SPYWARE or elsewhere before assigning the problem to an AVG-bypassed virus. Anyway, I would be suspicious about other things before a failure in AVG. . . .

I Googled Airship F4 (it's an RC toy) and one of the links on the first page turned out to be a porn site. I didn't even hardly check out the site ;-) but when i (finally ;-) went to leave it it wanted me to click "OK" to install something. Sorry for all the tech lingo. Anyway, it wouldn't let me exit the install window so I restarted my PC, when it came back up I had the old missing system file screen of death. Brad H On 9/7/07, David E.
