Installer

Is it possible to create an installer that doesn't trigger every $#@!ing virus protection program? Especially the popular ones?

Have you used pkk's installer?

It's not me, it's a friend of mine. They're downloading off the main site.

Considering I have installed Allegiance more times than most people, I'm pretty sure it doesn't trigger 'every $#@!ing virus protection program'.

Well it triggers AVAST, Norton, AVG, and McAfee

Could you provide some messages? Logs or something? I've installed it under both Avast and AVG without problems.

It just says "Trojan horse detected" when the download finishes (When it scans it auto)

If we make a installer, which doesn't contains or downloads ASGS, it would be possible. But that Allegiance installation won't be usable for playing games online.

This problem will get solved with release of new auth client (CSS).

The problem is a false positive from the Xenocode software used to obfuscate the code behind ASGS.

There's no actual virus, the anti-virus companies are just being lazy with regards to their detection and blanket-flagging stuff that's perfectly safe.

I should add that I have McAfee Enterprise (the corporate edition) on one of my PC's and it has NO problems at ALL with ASGS. The same is true of every other enterprise-level antivirus software I've used over the years.

Most for-home anti-virus software just isn't very accurate and on top of that - it assumes that all users are morons.

pkk is correct - there will be no way around this until ASGS's replacement is live or until someone can successfully convince the makers of a home anti-virus software suite to look carefully before crying wolf.

Free Virusscanner and malware scanner that should have come with your OS in the first place.
