Friday we reported AVG security called some of Google's pages a security threat. Later on in the day, Googler, Jem came in to tell us they spoke with AVG who promised to resolve the issue soon.

Jem Said:

We've been informed by AVG that they've made a change that should resolve the issue. If your AVG installation is set to auto-update (which is the default), this issue should be resolved. If you've changed that setting, you may need to check for an update first.

Several hours later, Google users with the AVG software have confirmed the fix did resolve the issue on the Google search result pages.

Forum discussion continued at Google Web Search Help.
