Just scanned the new patch 1.02 from BIOWARE, my virus scanner picks up TR/Crypt.ZPack.Gen2.

Any one else picking this up with their virus software?

[enderandrew]

Out of curiosity, what is your virus software?

[Sk1lld]

Avira

Link to report below, looks legit.

Where did you get the patch from? Steam the official website, the launcher?

[Sk1lld]

Official download from patch post above, official site.

Strange sounds false positive to me, try running a free anti viral program like avg or pctools to be sure.

[Chris H. Fleming]

I scanned with ClamAV before installing and detected nothing.

[enderandrew]

I also tested with ClamAV (which I keep on my thumb drive, because I can run it portable) and with Microsoft Security Essentials. I'm not detecting anything.

[Sk1lld]

Time to change anti virus I guess. Too bad really, it worked well until now. I hated AVG "Resource hog"and had NOD32 for a wile until the subscription ran out.

[Sk1lld]

Is Microsoft Security Essentials any good?

[Diviancea]

Haven't used it, but to change programs over a single false positive might be going a tad overboard tbh. I heard MSE is decent though.

[Vizkos]

I'd suggest Avast.

[enderandrew]

Microsoft Security Essentials finished #2 in scanning out of 17 engines tested in the most recent round-up I read. It was the top free choice. It also uses the least amount of memory of any of the 17 engines tested. I recommend it.



It could be the download was corrupted, which caused it to get flagged incorrectly. You could delete your internet cache and redownload the patch.



And some anti-virus programs just have false positives from time to time.

[Titius.Vibius]

False positive there. I will uninstall avira for a moment while this false positive is sorted out.

one time (years ago) an anti virus or an anti spyware i forgot, told me there was something and i was in middle of two things so i did nt checked what it was really, i deleted it and it was a critical windows thing ended up having my windows broken and had to format my comp and start anew hehe , sometimes these programs flags stuff wrongly and i learned since then to check what they are flagging hehe

Unfortunately allot of users just click "OK" and don't read what they are telling the computer to do. I've seen things like that quite often, people seem to think that if they just listen to what their computer tells them (essentially some nuts and bolts) everything will be allright. Which is the root of allot of problems in the world. The misguided idea that the computer "knows" what's good for it is wrong. In a perfect world everyone would be given a full MSCE coarse when they hit kindergarden

In a perfect world, we'd be running Linux. Computers would just work, and you wouldn't need an anti-virus.



With Linux all your software is free, legally. The KDE interface is more powerful, sexier, and yet more intuitive. I have my sixty year old mother using it just fine. Oh, and it is faster.



If iTunes worked in Linux, and more of my Windows games worked in Linux (some do via Wine) I'd leave Windows completely.

[Diviancea]

I don't mind working with windows that much, it does what it has to do for entertainment and thats what i use it for. For work I generally stick to backtrack.

If we all used Linux we'd have constant driver problems 

[enderandrew]

Valaskjalf: In Linux, all the drivers are built into the kernel. And Linux has more hardware support than Windows these days.



On every computer I install it on, everything just works out of the box instantly. The web cam just works. The wireless just works.



With Windows, you have to hunt down drivers.



Linux driver support has gotten MUCH better than past 5 years. But the best part is the modular design of having all drivers in the kernel, which load and unload automatically. And one driver crashing can't crash your whole system.



In Windows, a driver crash causes a BSOD, which crashes your whole PC, because Windows can't unload a driver in memory properly.



Download a Live CD. It will start and run really slow, since it is running off your CD drive. But I think you'll find it autodetects all your hardware, and that it just works out of the box.



If you ever want to experiment with Linux, I recommend openSUSE 11.2. It is very solid. And by default, when you do an install, it splits your HDD in two, and dual-boots with Windows, so you don't have to wipe Windows.

[Titius.Vibius]

WTH! We are discussing false positives here, not evangelical linux prophecies. Create your own linux threads elsewhere!

[Diviancea]

Well as far as drivers go i did have some issues getting some rtl chipsets to work. But in general linux is quite good indeed.

[Zeranas]

Ive got the same Alert with the Avira Premium Security Suite. I just added the File to the Exclude List and reported it to Avira as false Positive.

[Paranid]

its a false positive, some time before Dragon age was released there was a virus called similarly to daorigins.exe or summin, these detections on the DA patches can be ignored. (Just make sure u get the patches from a trusted source jsut to be sure though )

Same problem for me using Avira. I turned off the Active Guard while playing the game. Texmod also sets off false pos.
