AVG and SABnzbd+

AVG has started classing SABnzbd+ as a "Potentially harmful program Logger.FNY"  :(
I woke this morning to find SABnzbd+ wasn't running and the exe missing.
I have sent SABnzbd+ to AVG as a false positive.
This post is just FYI

Thanks for reporting this.
It's a shame, especially as most virus scanners aren't even very good at catching real viruses and spyware.

No problem.
I've asked to be informed of the result of the analysis and will post here when I recieved it.

I have had the same with AVG yesterday (a friend of my also).
I reinstall SABnzbd and get some updates from AVG and the problem seems to be over, but you never know.
