Hello,

Sorry if this is an old issue but I just upgraded from ewido to AVG Anti-Spyware and the scan seems to want to find an issue (see Report below.)

Should I just permanently add these entries to the Ignore list so they don't keep coming up?

Thanks in advance :)

Thank you for the answer :)

I did try to use the Forum Search but received way to many results to wade through :red:
