Virus problem

[Skyline]

For some reason after todays AVG Update, all my .exes (M2server, DBServer, Mir2.exe etc etc) Are all coming up with Win32/Themida Virus found.

If i pres Ignore it just slows my pc dow nfor a few seconds :S And the .exes dont work?

Any ideas? >_<

 

[TheBoss]

did that to me other week pal .. only way i got round it was dleteing the virus and redownloading files agen and replacing the exe's

 

[Skyline]

Tried that mate >_<

Still does it even if I re-download all the files.

 

[lifco]

unpack and remove themeda ?

or change avg to something elce,

i have avg myself and i like it so i know changing it would kind of suck

[TheBoss]

Bah ... try to disable AVG .. and see if it works then AVG playing me thinks

 

[Skyline]

Tried without AVG :S still wont work.

I have no idea how to unpack and remove it lol

its not a virus m8, AVG has updated and now they think its a virus...

just go into ur AVG, components > resident shield > manage exceptions

then add the path to ur mir.exe / mirserver

a lot of ppl on OS got this 2day, ive dled multiple EXEs tho, they all came up ssame... so dotn worry

 

[Skyline]

Nah I pretty much knew it wasnt a virus.
Just ****ed me off lol.

Uninstalled AVG for now.

iv got the same problem atm ne chance u could dumb that down abit bon pls?

 

[Bon]

that is dumbed down step by step lol

what cant u find? components is at the top alongside file history etc

 

[mStation]

i read somewhere that themida is an application used for packing up the exe's.. not a virus.. so i provided in the advanced options of avg to add some exclusion folders..and i have putted there the mirserver folder and the wemade game folder since i had also mir2.exe "infected"

 

[pogs11]

AVG, components > resident shield > manage exceptions

i duno what u mean by that ? i go into hard dick C program files AVG and theres no components ><
C:\Program Files\AVG\AVG8

components is not there

 

[Bon]

open up AVG, the actual program.... its at the top with file etc...

[Alin]

that avg deleted me all mir.exe from pc, if u disable it doesnt work.. you should uninstall it if you wanna go on mir again :wierds:

It does work Extac.

Put an exception on your the Mirfolder(s) you want to have the .exe sat in and redownload an exe into one of the folders with the exception in place. Otherwise it will simply heal (delete) the file.

You could place a temporary exception on your download folder as well if you can't download the exe where you want.

But Bon's advice DOES work
