VLC 1.1.8 and anti-virus software
Yet again, broken anti-virus software flag the latest version of VLC on Windows as a malware. This is, once again, a false positive.
As some of the anti-virus makers plainly refuse to fix their code, we recommend to our users to stop using Kaspersky, AVL, TheHacker or AVG.
Users are advised to use the free Antivir or the new Microsoft Security Essential.
Moreover, we advise users to download VLC only from videolan.org, as very numerous scam websites have appeared lately.

Source and Windows and MacOSX builds are available.
See the release notes for more information on 1.1.8.
