AVG & Spotify – Runtime packed themida multiple threat detected

Started getting a “Multiple threat detection” warning from AVG Antivirus today. I guess something updated with AVG and now it finds spotify a problem. I trust spotify so I’m going to add it to my list of AVG exceptions. This is how you do it

  1. Open AVG
  2. Double click Resident Shield
  3. Click Manage Exceptions
  4. On the left click Excluded Files
  5. On the right click Add
  6. Browse to C:\Program Files\Spotify\spotify.exe and Open that
  7. OK that screen
  8. Cancel the next screen

Now AVG won’t be look at spotify.exe any more.

If this helped you please check out the free advertising directory I work for – The National Pages.
