Exclamation Virus varning from Avast
I get a virus warning from Avast home edition virus scanner for C:\Program\Internet\FlashFXP\IEFlash.dll. Avast claims that it is a trojan horse named Win32elf-AEK [Trj].
This was when installing the latest beta.

Thank you. Can you please check the digital signature on the file and make sure it is signed by inicom networks and that it is valid? If all looks good, I will contact Avast about the problem.

This is a false positive report, and we have contacted Avast regarding this issue.

Just to let you know, AVAST has fixed the problem in their latest virus update. Thanks for the quick report! Its nice to get decenet support/response from an AV company after trying to deal with Symantec & McAfee.
