Just started C++, AVG is fucking with me

[The DooD]

Does anyone know why this happens and how I can avoid it?

I'm a super nub at this.

[Lily]

Something tells me Dev-C++ likes making virus looking stuff, or just that AVG fails at detecting stuff

[The DooD]

Yeah, I once named a file "bitch" and it was just Hello World and AVG did the same thing.

[Dlaor]

[cpp]
return 0;
[/cpp]
There's your problem. Any program with that piece of code is very suspicious.

Broken sarcasm meter detected.

Don't use Dev-C++

use [URL="http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads"]code::blocks[/URL]

also, don't use system("PAUSE");

do std::cin.get(); instead of it

[The DooD]

Thanks

Yea, I used to use Dev-Cpp, but it isn't up-to-date anymore. It has a very old version of gcc packaged with it. You can update ming/gcc and it is fine to use but I've heard Code::Blocks is a lot better and mode up-to-date.

Imo AVG has lots of false positives.

[DrMelon]

Code::Blocks is much, much better.
Make sure to use MinGW/GCC (i.e, download the Code::Blocks+MingGW package instead of just the Code::Blocks one).

AVG used to be good, but it jumped the shark a while ago.

I recommend you just use Microsoft Security Essentials

[Erp]

Visual C++ 2010 is awesome.

[efeX]

Well... it's not really lightweight/free, if you're moving on from DevC++ Code::Blocks would be the way to go.

Or you could always use [url=http://www.eclipse.org]Eclipse[/url].

I'm using code::blocks now and it is pretty sweet. I will 'upgrade' to Visual if it calls for it, but code::blocks is good for now.

[raccoon12]

visual studio is great too

[BRadNowacki]

IM still running the VS 2010 RC, but anyways Code::Blocks is a very powerful free to use program that i like but i just love Visual Studio and all its features too much my vote is for VS

VS isn't an upgrade. :geno:

Haha! nice to see you PvtMalloc, I see you're still hating m$

It's fine to dislike certain products, but I believe it's immature to hate an entire company like Microsoft just because you think it makes you '5uP4 H4RDC0R3 F#<K M$'

Most of their products are very good.

[QUOTE=turb_;21150320]Most of their products are very good.[/QUOTE]

This is a very false statement, most of their products are very unstable and full of bugs and whatnot. I've used many Microsoft products, and most often I'm really surprised how nice the program is and how many nice features it has. But it always ends the same way, the program ends up being impossible to do any real work in because of all the bugs and random crashes.

[Orygin]

Then go on a real computer.

I have absolutely no problems with Microsoft software and hardwares.

Not trying to turn this into a stupid war but really? I can honestly say in the past 4 months of developing in Visual Studio and typing papers in Office I haven't come across ONE crash.
You really must be doing something wrong, or you're just bandwagoning.
But wait.. which product are you speaking of that has "random bugs and crashes" making work impossible?

IE probably.

[yngndrw]

I sometimes get Visual Studio 2008 crashing when I close it, but as I'm closing it anyway it isn't a very big problem for me.

[Chad Mobile]

Half-Life 2 does that to me too, but only when I close it.
