well it seems to me you are basically saying,
that potco should let the user know about flaws in another program that they have no control over, that dont seem right is all im trying to point out, its not potco but the way avg handles their product, either the way their debugger handles heuristic scanning, i do not know.

but the complaints would be better off posted on avg's own forum.

i would like to see a sticky or some thing to let people be aware of the issue, but so far i have seen a few (removed) posts about people blatantly bashing potco as if it were a virus/trojan while nothing has been said about an alternative opinion (different product to test the viability of this claim) or considered the problem to stem from avg itself, so thats all i was trying to point out is avg's past history with online games being seen as a trojan, while other scanners correctly identify it as no threat.

posting OMG the launcher is a virus/potcos fault/blame, hurts far more than it helps this community, and btw i do not mean you Nathaniel.

as for the multiple programs, no i dont run any memory resident scanners, i rely on on demand and regular scans initiated by myself, i learned LONG ago about some bloated suites hogging my cpu cycles and lagging my comp terribly, and their def signature files are left out of the respective others scan zones.
