    It happens to all antivirus companies, Avira's turn today :(
    But there's good news too:
    We freeloaders are safe :cool

    I'd love to know how the hell an AV company makes that kind of mistake.

    Thinking someone was drunk when they were doing that update.

    It only affects or affected the pro version, not the free version and only on 32 bit computers but still it was quite a shock.
