Highly doubtfull, more likely a false positive by a sub par AV.

IT is fine, it is just a false positive by AVG. I scanned mine with avast and it is totally fine. (Steam international)

Yup.. no warnings from avast on my system either - and my avast runs brand new definitions (update came today).

Kaspersky doesn't see anything. 23112 files scanned in IL2 dir.

Just like OS/ antiViruses and games, I like to pay and get quality work in return.

I get the virus warning from AVG and it won't let me play the game. Anyone know of a fix?

Yes either report it to AVG or get AVAST which in my experience is way better than AVG.

Avast is free too.

@ the guys that never had steam its really good and can handle over 3 million at a time, yes there is slow downs in the download common on all platforms.
and the only thing your down loading is Silent Hunter III not COD. lol

Tree, if you're using the latest AVG you don't need to disable it.

Go to the Resident shield, then find advanced settings, in that look for the exceptions list and add the file: bingo, it is added and you don't need to shut down AVG to play CoD.
