Trojan horses
#43545 - 01/09/08 02:31 AM |
After downloading and playing the game AVG spotted 15 trojan horses. Happened to anyone else? -------------------- People die..but death is not defeat. |

No. Four possible explanations. 1: Coincidence. 2: You're spreading rumours. 3: Your AVG is broken. 4: Some strange reason I cannot think of. I'm inclined to believe 3. |

I run AVG 7.5 Professional and, Necro - I would say it is number 4 - the reason you can't think of is that he was already infected before the download! -------------------- A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing. - Emo Philips |

That would actually come under 1: Coincidence. He happened to be infected at the time, but not from DR. |

This game is everything but a virus source, I can guarentee that. ANY harm to a computer thats caused to THE GAME DR I will pay for 100 bucks to the person that has experienced it, and only virusses made by the game, in exception of a Game Root Kit, where some rumours are still there, search is your friend. Just to make clear DR is harmless..  -------------------- LegendRunner - level 100 Ace something The Townstons Wiki Archive! - Boss of TT Dont Feed The Trolls!

This issue has come up before, specifically with AVG: Linky... It was due to a false positive being reported by AVG after an update had been applied. While anything is possible, I would assume this to be the case for you, too. Have you tried updating AVG? Are the definitions current? |
