Public bug reported:

Using WIN7 Home Premium SP1, OpenLP 2.1.1, when installing or launching
the program, Avast Antivirus Pro detects OpenLP.exe as Malware:Gen and
immediately quarantines the executable. This forced me to disable Avast
for 10 minutes so I could install OpenLP 2.1.1.  After the 10 minutes
expired and Avast "raised all shields", I launched the OpenLP program
and Avast immediately quarantined the executable again forcing me to
disable Avast and reinstall the entire package to permit me to resume
testing the software. I have reached an impasse, I have to either keep
Avast and uninstall OpenLP or the other...

No log or traceback available.

MS Office 2010 installed.
