FlashGot.exe won't start after avg antivirus update

Post by 111qqq »

Hello

After updating avg free antivirus to version 9.0.730, something strange happens: when I open firefox, folowing error appears - "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application." After I click on OK, firefox regulary starts, and everything forks just fine, including FlashGot extension! Seems like avg put flashgot.exe on some "blacklist" :) Does anybody had similiar problem?

Thank you :)
