Possible Virus in Trainer on Gamecopyworld!!!
 
Hi I just downloaded the trainer +3 for X men Legends 2, when I first ran a virus scan on it while it was still in zip form it found none. But when I used winrar to decompress it, Nortons Realtime found a trojan Horse, :eek: Hopefully some MOD can remove it from the site quickly so others don't get hacked!

Thanks

um do it again with either avg or trend micros online scan,cos norton is about as useful as a chocolate tea cup

I hear a lot of people complain about Nortons! Personally Ive never had a problem with it in 5-6 years, ive 'never' had a virus in that time! But yes it can give a few false reports but this is better than not giving the right reports when needed. ;)
BTW I think you are drinking your tea from the wrong cup! :p

Nortons is notorious for its false trojan alarms.
What is more I do a fair business removing virii from nortons protected machines.

The trainers created with TrainerMakerKit use a dll-file, which some trojan also use. So some AntiVir is reporting the trainer as trojan.

If i remember correctly, the dll-file was: \WinXP\System32\H@tKeysH@@k.DLL .
The file is only there, when you have started the trainer.

Thanks for the info, I figured it might be something like that,but with all those wack jobs out their making viruses I figured better be safe and post, :cool:

There have been more and more virus alerts lately than ever before... but in all cases it was a false alert. Even McAfee is complaining about exe packed files. that is about 30% of all trainers!

Yeah unfortunately, AV's have been causing false alarms on files packed with free public packers.

As some virii have come packed with these, like Yoda, UPX etc

Silly really
