AVG False Positive

Code Sector 16 Comments

A few days ago AVG reported the Klone.P virus in TeraCopy and Direct Folders. It was quickly fixed with the next AVG update, but now it detects Klone.Z virus in the same files. Personally I wouldn’t trust antivirus that can’t make a decision about virus name. 🙂 You may check your files at virusscan.jotti.org or at www.virustotal.com.

If you want to report the false positive please read here (thanks to Jonathan for link).

You can disable AVG from scanning some folders. To do this:
1. Start AVG user interface
2. Select “Tools” – Advanced settings
3. Select “Resident Shield” – “Exceptions”
4. Click on “Add Path”
5. Browse to the path to be excluded from AVG scanning
6. Click on OK
