A moment ago my AVG free build 8.0.233 wrongly detected "The Spirit Engine 2.exe" as "Trojan Horse Dropper.Agent.LRE"!

Have other AVG Free users experienced this problem as well?

I did a quick search and a recent thread on the Clickteam support forums seems to indicate this is a false-positive for all MMF-built software:

Yeah it seems alot of other people experienced the problem.

I have good news though. After the AVG free update today (09-02-2009), "The Spirit Engine 2.exe" is no longer wrongly detected as a trojan. I guess AVG fixed something and now AVG free works the way it should.
