Title: virus detected with AVG
Post by: pacoescriba on February 13, 2013, 09:16:49 pm

I receive an alert about a virus (Troyano Agent4.QSX) of my antivirus software (AVG Free). I'm installed the codeblocks-12.11mingw-setup_user.exe program, from sourceforge

When i run my first executable (make a console project and run) i've the alert from antivirus

I think it's a false positive from my antivirus but it's a good idea that you know it in order to check it and talk with AVG

Code::Blocks doesn't generate any code that could be wrongly spotted by your AV software - the linker you are using does that, so you should report problems like this to the the project that implemented your linker, probably in this case GCC.

Hi!

I found a way to avoid this false alarm without changing AVG, it is here on the forum :
