If it's up to RTG, this false-positive(?) will never be fixed.

VIRUS PRESENT FROM SUN PALACE & AVG
Hello everyone,
I too had a mild panic attack when this happened to me... I uninstalled AVG and alerted RTG to the problem. They are working to have this issue resolved on a large scale.
Thank you.

Such false alarms are common. Often, the "fancy" casino installers used by some brands behave in a similar fashion to trojans, and a alert can be triggered by the pattern of behaviours in the "exe" file. These installers tend to be the ery small ones, that when run, connect to the internet and download the "real" casino installer. Since they are so small, they have ery little extra code in them that makes it possible to properly check them for legitimacy, so they are matched with the most similar malware signiature on the database.
Many applications also regard ANY casino installer as "malware", even when it shows as a legitimate installer for that brand of software, and the industry only have themselves to blame for this, as this is the result of all the malware tricks used in the past to cajole customers to try out the casinos.

Strange, eh? I've got AVG Free ersion 7.5.516, update the database once per day, and never had it give me a false alarm.

I use AVG free ersion also. I like it, but it does tend to give quite a few false alerts. A few months ago it was falsely reporting that the install file from RTG casino's were a trojan. I don't recall the exact name. I think I even had someone look at it from here if I recall correctly.
Just to be clear I'm not saying that your alert is a false alarm but I wouldn't jump ship yet.

Here's something

And here's the link to the AVG Free forum (must register to use) where this could be answered, sorry I'm so busy this afternoon or I'd look into it.

I dunno, I use AVG free and play at clubworld, and it doesn't occur. I'll search for the file on my machine. I didn't find it by googling the file name, only thing that came up was that link.

Which antivirus program are you using?
See this post
http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ld-casino.html It was never followed up by the community, and must have been overlooked when Bryan was on acation.
