Trojan detected when running LotC (19-21) patch (False Alarm)

Radiofloyd · Post by **Radiofloyd** » Mon Aug 04, 2008 11:45 am

I attempted to unzip the file containing the patch, but my Avast! 4.8 antivirus software alerted me to malware or a trojan within the file.

I've had no problems with any other LotC files, just the patch for missions 19-21.

Has anybody else encountered this problem? I just downloaded the file today.

you need to report this on the avast forums. For a while now, they've been registering thundergraft code as malware. Someone needs to go over there and tell them to fix it.

Correct- Avast isn't very reliable with StarCraft mods as has been noticed.

All right then. I thought it was a little strange that only the patch would be infected. Glad to know there are no problems.

Thanks.

You request topics to be archived and stickied too much.

My thing detected Avast as a trojan. I just got a different virus thing. All the mods work fine.

what? I never asked for a topic to stickied before in my entire life, not on this forum or on any other forum. This is the first time.

He also meant archived, you've asked for them a few.
