O.P. RE: Messenger Plus! Sound Library Fixer (3.00.0021)
There is absolutely nothing in the file/source that even could be considered a threat!!!!!!
The only thing it does is accessing a registry setting which has absolutely no further value at all for Windows or any other program than Plus!. And that is also the only link to Plus! in the whole file; a registry setting....
It is absolutely flabbergasting rediculus that this is detected as a virus!
Thanks for reporting though....
------------------------
Make sure you have truely closed AVG (quite often such anti-virus programs do not completely close when you exit them, or they might still have a Windows Service running in the background). Then redownload the file and save it to your hard disk first.
Never run an application straight from the download dialog, that's asking for trouble (but that is another matter). And don't save downloads to your desktop either, that's very messy.
Clicking on ignore in anti-virus programs also quite often still put the file in quarity, meaning that you indeed can't start the file/program. Ignore in such cases does not mean "ignore this threat", but often means "do not attempt to remove the virus, but keep the file as-is and block it from being used".
However, AVG shouldn't do that, and when you click on ignore it should completely leave the file alone. To solve this issue you better contact support of AVG itself.
