I have downloaded the latest version of BitComet torrent tracker (2.09) from its official website, but after some attempts to execute the file, AVG always stopped the process with the notification that the file contains FileRepPup [PUP] and moving the file to Quarantine. I have received notifications about BitComet even before, but I didn't have any problems by far and I think it's a trusted program. What is the solution of this situation? Is it possible to update the program anymore?
