Pipe Creek and Norton AV

Post by Henry Hill »

Hi,

Downloaded the Pipe Creek map pack and Norton promptly decided it was unsafe (Reputation.1 or something like that) and quarantined the installer.

I got the file out of quarantine ok but not sure if this is a known problem to you guys. I've had Norton do this sort of thing before with other downloads. Probably their issue????

Anybody else had this happen? Just a heads up. Apologies if this has been covered in another thread. Don't post much.

Great game and loving it when I get the chance to play.

Cheers,
Les

I went through a very short period (1 day) using Norton and found that it conflicted with the TC2M .exe ......but not with either of my SOWGB .exe's. But I went ahead and promptly rid my system of Norton and am now using AVAST and have had no issues with either game. :)

regards

Yeah I saw a report of someone with Norton flagging the Bonus Scenarios exe as well. These are of course false positives. The best thing for you to do is report the false positive to Norton. There may be an option when you take it out of quarantine to report it as safe.
