False positive alarms
We noticed a couple of false positive alarms reported on forums in the past week. Anti-virus may detect a legitimate application sometimes when a part of its code is similar to a code in newly created malware. AVG implements advanced anti-false mechanisms to minimize risk of false alarms to prevent this. If you encounter such rare coincidence when AVG detects a clean file, please submit the respective file to our virus analysts. There are two options how to proceed:
A) Sending via
this web page.
B) Sending via e-mail as described in
this AVG Forums post. When a sample is analyzed, e-mail response is sent back to sender with result.
More information about false positive alarms is available in the above linked AVG Forums article or in
FAQ 2343.
