When I try to install an update, I get an error message from AVG that a threat has been contained. The item is listed as Win32:Banker-MSA (trojan). Is this a false positive? Should I ignore and install anyway?

That has to be a false trigger as the check they are using is the on our setup program that is never executed after it is compiled so it cannot have a virus. We use InnoSetup which is probably the most common used setup in the industry and easy to accidentally use and get a false trigger.

Please report that they are getting a false trigger to them so they fix that. Our software is all checked for viruses before we upload it and on the server as well.
