was fixed in VPS 140421-1 update

Right ,no more alert this morning... but wasn't fixed by 140421-1 => at midnight with already this VPS 140421-1 => alert

Hello,
I don't see any detection there. Screenshot needed.
send the file to virus@avast.com, put "False positive" to email subject.

Hello,

why do you abolutly want we report old file to avast ?
No , it's just a funny observation .
it is always fixed quickly enough by xplode and maybe it's why you never see alert  ;)

3.100 & 3.103 were fixed by avast VPS updates.
And for your eyes screenshot for 3.200 & 3.201 fixed by xplode.

Edit:now (with new avast vps or streaming update) even 3.202 has alert , waiting for 3.203 soon  ;)
