Thank you.

I have submitted the report with the entire program in a rar file.

I recently upgraded a program that I do not have money to buy the license for. So I found a free version of it from an unofficial site…

After installing I did a scan of the files and there was no issue with it. However, once I run the program I get a message that it was blocked by the AVG behavior shield.

It might a false positive but it could also be something more serious.

I add it the program to the exceptions and used it for a week and nothing unusual happened.

How can I find out what behavior it was doing that caused it to be blocked?

How can I find out if it is a false positive or not?
