NOTICE: Avast *False* Positive
Apparently the Avast virus checker has a bug that is causing a false positive to be shown on all phpBB forums everywhere. We've just found out about it and they apparently Avast has a fix already prepared or is working on one.
Avast has released an announcement that this is a false positive and will be releasing an update:

Players of Perfect World are experiencing a similar issue right now. Many of the Antivirus programs had updates and something is terribly off with the update because a lot of A/V programs are showing a false positive for the Perfect World game client as well. AVG was causing particularly nasty problems. It may be more than just AVAST as I think that was one that was causing problems with the Perfect World game client as well.
