Its the free version.
And the MS product is NOT better than AVG, at least not on Windows XP.
Also, its not an infection in renegadefds_1037.exe, its an infection in a file inside RenegadeFDS_1037.exe (which your AV isn't likely to pick up since AVs dont generally understand that particular installer format and cant scan inside it)
I seriously doubt the AVG people would have said "those files you send do contain a virus, here are clean versions" (the clean versions ARE different to the other versions btw) unless they actually DID contain a virus.
I downloaded http://downloads.cncfps.com/Westwood/renegade/dedicatedserver/renegade_fds_1037. exe and unpacked it with an installer unpacker and the files in that one ALSO contain the virus.
The same register.exe (the one that causes AVG to trigger) was also shipped with various builds of RA:APB and was (after I told people to scan it) tripping several AV programs.
