Re: Syberia II = Virus threat
Usually AV progams have an exception list, where you can add the metaboli folder to it.

Which AV are you using?

Re: Syberia II = Virus threat
Thank you guys, I appreciate the help! FYI it said trojan.gen.

Anyone know how to get past this, I've had it on several games now. Any help would be appreciated.

:)

Re: Syberia II = Virus threat
Look at the vrus name that its coming up with.. usually it will be gen.blahblahblah.

The Gen part means generic, which means its not identifiable as a known virus but its doing something that some known virii do. In most cases for Metaboli this is "send information to server" which you practically do every game, only some games will trigger the alert though.

Edit: Just for your Info, I downloaded and tried it but did not pick up a virus using Avast.

Hi there.

There are no viruses in any of our games. Most likely your AV thought it saw a generic file that it thinks is a virus and flagged it as such when it really is a false positive.

We would not publish a virus infected game. Ever.

Syberia II = Virus threat
I went to play Syberia II and my anti virus caught it as a threat. I hope this can be cleared up, I don't want to play games that I have worry about viruses or intrusions. I am very unhappy over this.
