prompted to uninstall avast  :( ... gotta find a way  ;)

edit: too bad I'll skip it. Never wanted to have two AV, but at least give this panda cloud a try. May be another time. Sounds interesting though.

aGuitar Pro lets you manage your guitar or bass progress with exercises on the notes and on the accords. There are many advanced lessons you can follow and surely it can be helpful for advanced students as a reference point. The program features testing tools to sample your knowledge of the harmonic world.

Just passing along the information that it had too many false positives for me when I had it.

Please read:

I'll stick with avast! and MBAM.
