The message about executable files applies to any install file. This is to protect you and let you know that if you choose to install the file you could run the risk of there being a virus in the file. If there is anything suspicious about the file or the source of the file, do not install it.

Does a survey have a virus?

It may. . . It depends if it is online(which we all know we are discussing about that) right after your about to download it states "this type of file can harm your computer."It is just safer to NOT download it.

How do I fix this I have a project I have been working on for months and now when I try to open the file it says error occurred when opening file?

The file may be damaged, and it is possible that you can't repair it.You may want to look for repair tools for the specific type of file you are using. For example, if it is an Excel file, look for Excel repair tools. However, it is quite possible that the file is damaged beyond repair. What you REALLY have to do is to start making backup copies of important information. That way, if an important file gets damaged, you won't lose more than a few days of work (depending how often you make the backups).

Heal function tries to remove the virus from the infected file. If the file is really infected so it may work or not (because it is difficult or it is not really infected), but if it is not then it will not work. If AVG manages to remove the virus, the file is free and not infected anymore, if not then you should move it to the vault or delete it.


How do you recovery my lost Jar Files?

It isn't clear how you lost them in the first place. Probably the same as any other file. If the file has been actually deleted, you may need to restore them from a backup, for example. There are also utilities that can recover lost files, but they aren't very reliable. Mainly, if the part of the hard disk where the deleted file was has been used for some other file, the old file can no longer be recovered.
