Chris Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Quite a few people have mentioned that SONAR is blocking Xenonauts. If this applies to you, please can you go to this link: https://submit.symantec.com/false_positive/ Once there, please can you report to Symantec that they are blocking a legitimate program? If a few of you do it then hopefully they can update their software so it doesn't automatically consider our game a threat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 done. SONAR quarantined the .exe again today on 9.5 build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzz Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 There must be exclusion settings. All antivirus software generally have - heuristics analysis often make mistakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 yes, I thought I'd selected it for version 9.2 or 9.3. Either I didn;t do it correctly or the fact I've had to update form Desura and from the 'download without Desura' link possibly meant I had to go through it again. I may have to go through it if I downlaod the full thing again in the future. I'll keep my eye on it. If it's of any help to anyone on Norton Internet Security 2012. It's on Settings> Computer>Antivirus and Sonar exclusions. I'd never heard of SONAR before this happens. A tiny part of me was hoping that someone had decided to mod in some Terror form the Deep after all. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauddlike Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I would assume every time you replace the exe it would need adding back to the list unless the file is completely identical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'll submit the final version of the public release to their whitelist thing too, so hopefully this will be less common when the public build becomes available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 on the plus side, a number of pirates will be picking up false positives from their downloads. Hopefully that will push a few more of them to actually buy the thing. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
