Comment Not just the free ones giving problems, Nod 32 too (Score 1) 440
It's not even a case of "you get what you pay for" anymore:
Sadly even the rather good Nod32 (ESET) antivirus scanner that has consistently been shown to be one of the better AV's (fast, effective and light), is now beginning to give problems.
On Sunday I installed the latest (beta) version of "Free Download Manager", a well regarded, open source windows downloader that I've used for months now. Nod32 decided that the uninstaller was malware and deleted it, so if I want to remove it now, I won't be able to via control panel, since the uninstaller has been deleted!
To me it's beginning to look like the AV industry is now very close to having lost the war against malware. I'm seeing lots of false positives from other AV tools as well.
