Is it a virus or not? Is AVGs heal/virus vault going to handle it or do I need to do something else? I can't follow what has been posted thus far...seems contradictory. And other sites the same.Thanks in advance. Can we get a condensed summary for us that don’t understand all the pc lingo?

My AVG picked up 3 of the Sheur trojans so far today. Is it a virus or not? Is AVGs heal/virus vault going to handle it or do I need to do something else? I can’t follow what has been posted thus far…seems contradictory. And other sites the same.

Thanks in advance.

They were referring to the WDsync file which you need in order to access the WDPassport sync program. AVG has accidentally identified this WDsync file as a virus previously and had corrected it. It happens from time to time. I just installed the new version of WDsync and it's fine. That is not what they meant.

It may really be a false positive (if so, AVG should correct it). However for them to say ignore all exe's is just plain stupid on their part.

Yes this is normal. What you need to do is configure your AVG anti virus, go to exceptions, and add the .exe file extension to be excluded.”
