    Hello,

    I downloaded the Free version of Returnil Virtual Drive from this link:
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/Returnil_Virtual_System_Personal_Edition_d5702.html

    and my AVG Antivirus said that it contained a trojan. Not sure if that is just how it recognizes a legitimate function of this software or not, but I thought I'd better let you guys know.

    Hey thanks by the way for an amazing site with so many free programs.
    MajorGeeks; you Rock!

    info.:
    ReturnilVirtualSystem_Free contained Trojan Horse SHeur.FA
    as per AVG Anti-Virus

    Hi Steve

    Seems to be a false positive as AVG at present also highlights a trojan or two in intuit's Quickbooks! which is also a legitmate application, I guess AVG may get this fixed in the next Virus Definition file update.. I'd hope.

    I assumed that it was, especially since I think I used the "Authors site"
    download link in the list when I downloaded the file.
    I figured it would be smart to let the geeks know in case they wanted to look though.
    Thanks for ressponding.
