AVG changes its stance on LinkScanner
Posted by Nathan McFeters @ 11:08 pm
A few days ago I wrote a story about AVG’s LinkScanner causing a massive amount of additional traffic on the net in the name of protecting customers… yeah.
From that story, I posted a poll that asked, “Do you think that AVG’s LinkScanner should be added to the badware list?” A respectable 1,065 people voted on this, and a resounding 77% of people believed that AVG’s LinkScanner should be added to the badware list.
AVG seems to be reversing their position on LinkScanner:
“‘As promised, I am letting you know that the latest update for AVG Free edition has addressed and rectified the issue that [Whirlpool] have brought to our attention. This update has now been released to users and has also been built into the latest installation package for AVG Free.’ — Peter Cameron, Managing Director, AVG Australia.”
