[Elecraft] K3 MARS mod, showing a virus

I got a response finally yesterday, and they resent the mod, but it still 
comes back saying it has the same virus.  Elecraft said it was because it's 
a EXE file, and renamed it a XEX file, but that didn't seem to matter to the 
AVG Antivirus.

This is coming directly from Elecraft, and also believe it is a false 
positive, but was curious if anyone else has expeirienced this as well.

Most likely a false positive. Do you know which of the Elecraft guys wrote 
it? Did they email it to you or did you download it?

Contact Elecraft again. It's not like them to be non responsive. Then notify 
AVG so they can correct their software.
