I know this is technically old news, but as most of us know some virus scanners detect SKVP.sys ( part of RG ) as a virus.
As far as I know up until now PC-cillin has not made this false-positive, but mine updated last night, and the new definitions apparently decided to class it as a virus.
Just a heads-up for the RG team, you might want to get in contact with Trend Micro about this, and if anyone has any suggestions how I can start RG without the file being re-quarantined I would be grateful ^^

For anyone else using PC-cillin you can add it to the exception list... with a bit of a carry on though.
You can only add items to the exception list while the real time scan is running, and that means, each time you click it to add it to the exception list, it plonks it back in the quarantine folder and then informs you it can't find the file to add it to the exception list... d'oh...
So the solution
1) add folder system32 to the exception list
2) add the file svkp.sys
3) remove the folder system32 again ( unless you want to leave your virus scanner crippled most viruses target system32 folder, so not a good idea to leave it on exception list )
