Had an ILS problem with FSX, not recognizing the frequencies and not intercepting the glide slope at KTPA...
After nosing around the Internet, found this great site from a post on a forum....

Take a look at this site: http://www.aero.sors.fr (http://www.aero.sors.fr/)


Under the Navadata tab and Navaid tools, I used the Updated Magvar Data tool to fix the ILS problem
Lot of neat tools and fixes
Thought I would share!

I've downloaded from his site before & have no problems either with AVG or Sophos.

A Quote from the Site Owner taken from the forum:

Most of the executables I provide could occasionally raise false positive virus warnings with some antivirus packages.
This is a common and known problem with those whose generic and/or heuristic analysis mark some executables or DLLs as positive (often Gen:Variant.Symmi.xxxxx, Heur.Win32, WS.Reputation.1, BehavesLike.Win32, Malware.QVM false positives).
This is sometimes the case with CMC, Qihoo-360, Ad-Aware, BitDefender, Emisisoft, F-Secure and GData but usually not with Avast, AVG, Comodo, F-Prot, Kaspersky, Malwarebytes, McAfee, SuperAntispyware, Symantec, TotalDefense, TrendMicro and some others.

In case you have a doubt, I suggest you perform an extensive online scan using
www.virustotal.com/ (http://www.virustotal.com/)
www.virscan.org/ (http://www.virscan.org/)
virusscan.jotti.org/ (http://virusscan.jotti.org/)
and compare the results taking into account the above false positive results I've detected
In all cases, don't let your antivirus perform some silly actions on his own such as removing a file from a zip or rar package.

My programs and computer are tested on a regular basis (using Avast, MalwareBytes and AVG) and are not infected.
Sending a mail to antivirus providers each time a "new false positive" is observed is time consuming and ineffective (it is an endless process considering their database continuously changes and I recompile my programs frequently)

Consequently, if you ask me, my answer will be: it's a false positive
However, in case you still have a doubt, feel free to run programs first in a virtual protected environment just to put your mind at rest or simply do not use them. Considering 99.99% of users didn't report any problem and I've never been infected, I will probably not give it a thought
