[bjna]Never download PokerAce Hud or PokerTracker from any site other than the official PokerTracker website(s)[/bjna]

Several users have brought it to our attention that as of March 2, 2008, GData and Avast AntiVirus are incorrectly reporting that PokerAce Hud contains a Trojan virus.

I can assure you that if you downloaded PokerAce Hud from this website (or our old website) that it [bjna]DOES NOT[/bjna] contain a Trojan Virus. It appears GData/Avast pushed out a new definition today which is providing a false/positive. This happens on occasion in the AntiVirus industry.

I highly recommend that you contact GData or Avast Customer Support and notify them of the issue. You can provide them with the files and they should be able to confirm the issue on their end and hopefully get it resolved quickly.

In the mean time, please do not quarentine PAHud.exe. If you do, PokerAce Hud will not run properly. f you have already quarantined PokerAce Hud, you will need to re-download the installation files from our website. Simply install over-top of your existing installation and everything should run properly. You should add 'PAHud.exe' as an exception in your A/V scan to temporarily get around this false-positive report.

Best regards,

Derek
