    I've been using ATF-Cleaner forever and all of a sudden, Avast is telling me that its a threat

    I know better, how do I tell Avast that ATF-Cleaner is not a problem?

    Right click on Avast icon, click "Program settings ", then "Exceptions ".

    This false positive appears to have been fixed with today's Avast VPS update.

    I figured it must be a false positive or something.

    Thanks for the help here. :)
