Hi - this question is more technical in nature and will be best answered by AVG customer support. My recommendation is that you start here to solve the issue: <a href="http://www.avg.com/customer-support" rel="nofollow">http://www.avg.com/customer-su...</a>

Hi Erik, The best way to report a potential false detection of a file is to do it here: <a href="http://samplesubmit.avg.com/false-detection?cpmid=thl_tt_falsedetect" rel="nofollow">http://samplesubmit.avg.com/fa...</a> Can you give that a shot and let the community know what happened?

Sounds like we are getting a lot of false positives here. Can AVG please confirm. I'm about to just remove avg and try somebody else.

This threat is coming up repeatedly as infecting my SUD.dll file but AVG wants to white list it. I want it removed completely. why is it not removing it?

This "Win/Heur" has been detected on a downloaded copy of a game from Ubisoft. i.e. Not a free game. How can this happen? What are the effects of this particular virus?

Hi MIchael, Inside AVG there is module called "Identify Protection" when it detects weird behavior on a device (rather than a specific infected file) - this type of detection a "Heuristic" detection is what this threat means. There is a nice video from AVG which talks about the different virus detection and removal processes in the AVG product: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8AMZCuMYsw&feature=youtu.be" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...</a>
