How come it suddenly came up avg has been fine up until now was it because of a virus definitions update. Is this a dvdfab or avg problem if so i hope there is a permanent solution.

DVDFab HELP!! Threat Detected Warning!!

The workaround suggested by SecretSuperstar worked. Thanks a bunch for now. I hope to find a permanent solution.

I have a fix for you guys i have the full version of avg 9.0 open avg interface and click on resident shield and click on manage exceptions and then click add path click on my computer,then click local disk c. Scroll down to program files to where it says dvdfab 7 and highlight it and click okay button then add path, then click apply and okay i recommend reinstalling it as this point and it should work. It has for me

Same thing. I've emailed support @ 11:00pm E.S.T. but no reply yet.

I've been using AVG for quite a while and over the years, they have come up with a lot of false positives right after new updates. That workaround works great. I have quite a few files I have had to do that to.

[SecretSuperstar]

Workaround here

Gotta be a false positive. This is a redistributable Microsoft file that hundreds of developers include with their software installations. Clicking the Ignore button only dismisses the dialog. In order to continue using DVDFab, you need to add an exception in AVG for the problem file. (I just did this and DVDFab is working now.)

1. Double-click the AVG tray icon to launch the AVG config UI.
2. Go to Tools > Advanced Settings > Resident Shield > Excluded Files.
3. Click Add, then browse to the exact path/file that AVG was complaining about (in this case, Msvcr90.dll in the DVDFab install folder).
4. Click OK to close AVG Advanced Settings.
5. Re-launch DVDFab.

I do not know how to report these problems to AVG, and their link to find more details about a given infection NEVER EVER WORKS.

I think it's time I dumped AVG free and try something else!

Does anyone know how to report a false positive threat to AVG?

Having the same problem and AVG won't ignore the issue.

Dev Help?

It is not a fab dev problem.. Report it to your virus dev.

[meemo23]

Ignoring the issue didn't work for me either. As well, checked the size of this file in other locations and it ranged between 639 and 641k. Copying and pasting from another location to the DVDFab folder didn't help either.

Not sure what to try next....

7.0.7.9 beta makes AVG bark that same error I'm setting AVG to ignore it as a threat and carrying on with my life.

[wapitikev]

V7078 and 7079 report it as 614kb

I suspected as much.

I'm moving up to a bet right now...we'll see if AVG barks when that's done.

Thanx, Gruñón:

WHat is the file size of msvcr90.dll in your DVDFab directory?

-Wapiitkev

V7078 and 7079 report it as 614kb

There is something else causing the problem for some but not all members.

This must only be DVD related. My Blu-encoder machine has AVG and has the current update but is not flagging anything as a threat. It is currently encoding a Blu-disc.
