Hello,

I do not understand the problem. If the _ATL_MIN_CRT is causing you
problems just don't compile your project with this setting enabled.

I have had no problems with Avast in particular, but you should know that
all antivirii software is nothing more but snake oil. They do not protect
you from unknown threats and what they call heuristics algos is just
another word for "we do not know what to do". And for these reasons I will
never pay for anti virii software but rather use the free MS Security
Essentials. Which also has no problems with the mentioned WTL compile
setting.
