    I had the same problem with AVG detecting CPUZ as a virus. It is a false positive for sure. I just set AVG to ignore it. AVG for some reason also said my B's Player was the same trojan. I know for a fact, it is not, so I also set it to ignore B's Player too. Note: I also set my firewall to block both of those programs from accessing the internet. Even if they were a trojan, they would then be pretty useless to anyone out there.

      Note: Do not create any files (including browsing) while it runs or else it will report differences between the registry (which it loads at startup) and API. Some of its reports are harmless - you need to interpret them.

      Hi Blu. I better relax right now w/this seeing both you and Chewy already suggested learning how to interpret the reports. I'll give an update on this after I learn some more. Thnx for the link and name of the .exe file.
      SAMSUNG SH-S203B, SAMSUNG SH-S223F,

      Take the suggestions and follow the directions. The results will speak for themselves.



      Google is definitely our friend.
