Issues Downloading V28 for Windows

[Derrick3300]

When trying to use the link from here in firefox nothing happens as if i lost the connexion, and that's what basically the page says. When i use IE, I can dl just till the end, then a pop up appears and says I can't make modifications on the file as I don't have the admin rights (which i have ofc, and i tried various path that have full control on). When using FF nothing is downloaded, when using IE , Avast put it straight to it's virus chest. Is this a normal thing?

 

The file in avast is considered infected while when scanned shows no virus.

No. I can download it without issues.

Is a sign of a false positive... false positives is a normal thing with badly coded virus protections programs that look at the files numbers, not the actual code, and thus falsely claim things without context.

Actually 9 out of 10 virus protection software programs have the exact problem Avast have, and the programs then dismiss their own detections because they have a system that remove "possible treats" because they have been already put to the "clean" library.
