Yes, this has been reported on this reflector many times within the past few
weeks, and it is a false alarm.

One work-around is to run wt_dev.exe from
http://download.win-test.com/v4/nightly instead of wt.exe (which will be
very hard to replace now if AVG has quarantined it).

Others have simply chosen to uninstall AVG completely.
