VU9.1 Virus Checker Issues (multiple merged threads)

[Kujo]

Anyone else got this? The install of 9.1 gets aborted by my antivirus software due to suspisious code in a file...

My software is F-secure.

The info I get is:
Name: W32 / Malware
Type: Virus
File: ...\mindark\entropia universe\
Path: cldllpatcher.exe

Explination from F-secure:
"W32/malware is a warning of an application file with suspicious code inside. When a file is suspected it means that the heuristic scanner found virus-like or trojan-like activity in the analyzed file.

It is possible that a heuristic scanning engine can produce false alarms."

-----
I dont know much about these things and Im sure it's a false alarm but still... Could anyone experienced with these kind of things tell me if Im safe to allow this file?

sounds right - DEP shut down entropia twice on me ... not truly a virus, of course, just trying to access thing improperly, it seems

Kujo -

If I were you, I'd take the following steps:

* Uninstall EU
* Disable your firewall, or open necessary ports if you know which they are.
* Download EU again and then reinstall.

It seems that others had a similar problem a couple of years back:
Bug with clientloader helppp!! ;D

Good Luck!

Had the same problem myself but then again i have had the same problem every VU since i installed f-secure on my computer. Every VU i have to disconnect f-secure otherwise i cant download. I dont think this is a problem.
Just turn f-secure off, download EU and then do a virus scan to be double sure. Thats what i always do and i have no problems.

Best wishes/Pirro

yea well, I can choose just to allow the file. Dont need to shut off f-secure and if the file is safe then no need to re-install either...

What I wonder is if the file is safe!?

First time I get this and I have used f-secure for a looong time. Alltou I dont blame my software for beeing too safe, I rather put this on the list of bugs from MA side ^^

I am no expert in this matter, just wondered if anyone else received a warning?

[dbelinfante]

No, and I use AVG as well. Could be a real instance.

[Faustian]

I'd get rid of that and re DL it.

[J.C Cougar]

No Virus warning for me either and i also use AVG.
