AVAST! blocks Fleet Ops

posted on October 28th, 2012, 4:40 pm

Hello everyone,

Since I installed the lastest version of Fleet Ops my Virus-Scanner blocks FO as MALEWARE.
I don't think that FO is mailware - but I can't play it without turning my Avast! off.
Avast! tells that the "Armada2.exe" is infected.

It seems, that there is a strange thing in the newest FO version, that is similar to mailware?


Anyway - I hope to get FO working again, and hope that no one else got the same annoying problem...

Yes, certain virus protection programs will flag FO. Just mark FO (or take it off the quarantine list) on the whitelist and/or send a report to the company .

Just tested the latest version, also running avast! and it hasn't flagged it as infected for me?

I don't know why Avast! have a problem with FO...

Hm... I put my FO into steam, too... maybe that makes a problem?

I assume they have fixed their signatures in the latest version then.
