Attention AVG users!

[Mayhem]

An update for the AVG virus scanner released yesterday contained an incorrect virus signature, which led it to think "user32.dll" contained the Trojan Horses PSW.Banker4.APSA or Generic9TBN. AVG then recommended deleting this file; this causes the affected systems to either stop booting or go into a continuous reboot cycle. So far, the problem only appears to affect Windows XP, but there is no guarantee that other versions of Windows don't have the same issue.

Both AVG 7.5 and AVG 8.0 were affected by the update; a revised signature database has just been published that corrects this issue.


Make sure you update the virus definition file before scanning your system!

Thanks for the update, Mayhem.  I don't use it either but enough people do that it's worth posting.  But I would imagine if they have already updated, they can't get online to read your warning.   !@#$
