Discussion - Symantec eats MQ Dll Files

[no_one]

Has anyone else seen that as of today symantec now kills some plugin .dll files in the redguides compile?

Symantec decided to eat MQ2AutoAccept, MQ2Debuffs, MQ2Notepad, MQ2EQBugfix, MQ2Bzsrch, MQ2Map, MQ2Rez, MQ2NoNagWindows, Mq2Melee ....

All with a Risk of WS.Reputation.1 , which for anyone who does not know how Symantec works this means that the above files do not have a "high" reputation according to symantec. There is a dispute process for this, but since I only run it on this machine I am not concerned. Figured there may be others out there running this software that try redguides and didn't want anyone to jump to some conclusion about the software being infected.

All virus programs have a way to allow exceptions for files. If it does when you download the compile just turn it off for the 90 secs you are downloading.

Dispute it by sending them the file and the source zip so they can build their own versions and can see that it's harmless for themself...

I did this before and they always been reasonable when they realize it's an open source application...
