Re: all av have the false / bugs from time to time and I did not No, this is different. An occasional false positive is one thing.

Natchitoches, LA | Sadly, this is not the first time this has happened. I have all my machines set to just alert me, but do nothing until I tell the program what to do.
So far it has tried to delete the drivers for two of my webcam programs, Syncback SE, and at least one system analysis suite.
Stuff happens. I deal with it (most of the time!!) |
