SRL Archive - News and General

Someone needed to make a post about this, so, the deal is that lowzy anti-viruses like AVG etc. detect SCSS.exe as a virus, but it's only a worldswitcher/scar client and it won't be even used automatically if you are worried about that.

Nothing in the SCAR folder contains a virus.

About time :)

ah.. but what about outside the scar folder?!

Yes Mod or Admin should put this as an announcement or a sticky so that it is here longer.

These posts annoy the hell out of me so do the 0/\/\9z0r an0th3r 10 d4y b4n.

I did get scared for a second ;)

The staff doesn't consider it as a problem yet, but it will be stickied if it seems so to them…

SCSS has for some reason been marked as a trojan, it wouldn't be the first time, though I've yet to learn the cause… However, it's obsolete and will be removed in the next SRL release. It's been rewritten and released as OSS now. http://freddy1990.com/osprojects.php

Okay, then I'll remove this after some time… It's some new virus idents (Sp?) that think it's a virus or something…

You and your "obsolete" program is givin me viruses freddy! Oh noes! A leet haxor!

Suprised Hobbit never freaked out about all these virus posts and made a sticky in FAQ and General Discussion. He seems rather displeased with them, at least.

This won't help I'm sorry.. HAS been stated many times already, but nubcakes don't know how to work "durr dis search machine". I suppose they've never heard of no surrch in 1864.

I thought this was already stated before :S

Maybe add this in the tutorial island, on the thread how to setup scar properly.

That is a rather good idea.
I'll do that now :)
