Hello group,
I recently got an e-mail with suspicious compressed attachment. Put attachment on my desktop and scanned it with Avast 4.8. No reaction from Avast, just a lightning-quick scan and then nothing. But when I ran my weekly Avast sweep of my hard drive, Avast identified the still-compressed and unopened attachment (now in recycle bin) as a virus, calling it Win32: Autorun - APG [WRM]. Anybody know why Avast failed to identify it on the individual scan, then picked it up on the hard-drive sweep?
thanx,
Chet
