Title: AVG update breaks iTunes Post by: Alex on July 26, 2009, 11:47:12 PM AVG update breaks iTunes
A recent AVG signature file update is incorrectly identifying iTunes/iPod files as viruses, as reported by forum users on the Apple website. The AVG Virus scanner identifies all iTunes/iPod related files as the 'Small.BOG' trojan - a trojan which does not seem to exist, as revealed by a quick Google search. The update, which is unidentified, but confirmed to be a false positive, is removing all files, and deleting them. Once these files have been "cleaned", iTunes will not run, and is not fixable by a reinstall. A fix has been pushed by AVG in the latest signature update - but users may need to reinstall iTunes. A fix can be found here on the Apple Forums. Read full story... http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/neowin-main/~3/uN4SiznBQTI/avg-update-breaks-itunes |
