AVG Antivirus Fails Trust

For the second time in as many months the AVG antivirus program by GRISOFT is showing it's incompetancy. AVG antivirus, the once widely regarded free home AV solution has lately been prone to 'false positives' the inability to recognise and protect local applications from its own harmful, deceptive and disruptive heuristic scans.

This is not the first time that GRISOFT AVG antivirus program has failed in its scanning of YahELite and YahELite programs. Over the years we have received more user reports of GRISOFT AVG failures than any other AV product.

In AVG's recent update it now identifies YahELite.exe as a potential threat. AVG has a history of flagging clean applications and files as harmful, in some cases deleting precious content, removing key components of installed programs and deceiving users.

Perhaps GRISOFT AVG in an attempt to improve its poor record of virus detection in the wild has become over-zealous and is resorting to 'shoot anything that moves' even if it doesn't move.
GRSIOFT AVG has repeatedly shown that it flags clean applications as infected because of its over-zealous and faulty heuristic scans.

For a list of alternative AV programs consider googling for superior AV products such as ESET NOD32, Kapersky, Sophos or Norman
