Has been fixed, sorry for the inconvenience & Merry Christmas :)
Probably 3100.dat got somehow corrupted or deleted (disk-/filesystem-error) and was then downloaded again during an update.
This was true for versions < 7.5. Starting with AVG AS 7.5 the counter doesn't get increased by blocked cookies anymore as this could lead to very...
No... Well, a different problem: There was/is a problem at our ISP, they have some major outage of their backbones. :( Will keep you informed. At...
The main reason for increased setup file sizes is that we always include to the most current database in the setup. As this is steadily...
In the new build, Tacking-Cookies aren't counted as "detected malware" anymore. This could explain the huge difference :)
There is no problem with the servers - are you getting an error message?
Do you have guard.exe disabled?
It may sound ridiculous but we, the old ewido team, didn't even know about this issue until we read about it here on Wilders. That means, we were...
Were/are there files left in the program directory after the uninstall? If so, which? Could you please try installing it to a different location?
Could you please look inside the AVG AS application folder if there are any *._old_ files? If so, please manually delete them and try to launch...

Exactly. :)
No, that's not true! Although guard.exe will stop protecting the system, it will still be running and provide the necessary functionality for...
No, sorry, this cannot be changed... :( Core functionality has been outsourced to guard.exe, that means even things like update and cleaning are...
No, it doesn't :)
Simply wait for it to be released via online-update :)
guard.exe absolutely needs to be running in the new version. Some of the main functionality like cleaning, analysis tools etc. had to be...
Then it's greyed out because a report has already automatically been generated :)
@beynac: Could you please go to Settings and check if "Automatically generate report after every scan" is enabled?
Well... Could be next week actually :)
Could you please submit this file? http://www.ewido.net/en/malware/ Thanks!
I highly doubt that this is a fp. In general, when a single detection affects so many normally different files, it's very unlikely that it's a fp....
No, that's absolutely not the case! The main problem is, that the guard/resident shield technology used by AVG AS is very different from the one...
