Hi,
I have used YoWindow for several months now and love it- especially the screensaver!
However, this evening I updated my antivirus software (AVG), and it now flashes a warning that YoWindow is malware and wanted me to send it to the virus vault. Please tell me why this is happening, and what can be done to correct it. Thank you!

Re: malware?
Ahh....
I think this is because AVG does not know much about the fresh YoWindow build.
We have had the same problem is with Norton Antivirus

A couple of days ago I have downloaded GIMP editor and AVG has also asked me if I want to put it in the virus valult.
Nonsense.
YoWindow is not a malware.

Get YoWindow weather app for your phone or tablet.

You may want to contact AVG and let them know you are getting a false positive on YoWindow. They will normally fix that in their database quickly.cheryl70x7 wrote:Hi,
