As usual I wanted to look at a few hands in My Hands, and when I clicked the Movie - Suddenly I receive a warning from my anti-virus (Avast!) - detected a threat - a Trojan horse - htt p://www.bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.js> {gzip} JS-agent -JX [Trj]
- blocked call :angry:

Chciałem jak zwykle przeglądnąć kilka rozdań w Movie My Hands, kliknąłem na Movie i nagle otrzymałem ostrzeżenie od mojego antywirusa (Avast!) - wykryto zagrożenie - koń trojański - <komunikat> - połączenie zablokowano
:angry:

Hi Lelos,

This is not possible. We don't have a virus or trojan horse in the handviewer hand records. Must be an antivirus mistake, feel safe. :)

This morning, everything opens up for me as it should. It follows from this that it was a false alarm. :rolleyes:

Avast is free. Or at least it has a free version that contains all the important security features. And in my opinion it is generally very good. Cannot comment on ESET as a comparison.

Psyche (pron. sahy-kee): The human soul, spirit or mind (derived, personification thereof, beloved of Eros, Greek myth).

Hehe
I myself have used all three:)
The fourth anti-virus has been my faith in my computer with 150 MHz processor and its system Win98. For four years, nothing bad would happen, until finally, in November last year I got a newer computer as a gift. Thanks to him I can safely play on BBO.
