ceb2 -> OFFICERS and VIRUS SOFTWARE Problems! (1/30/2010 3:02:14 PM)
|
Thought I'd post this in case someone else has experienced the same problems with Officers. In spite of the fact that I've whitelisted the game (AKA as adding it to an exlcusion list) in my virus settings I still get a problem about once a week with it not allowing the game to run. BTW, I had to whitelist Officers on both "manual scan" and "auto-scan" in my Virus App.
Now, I always do my Vista gaming with the UAC disabled and the Virus App OFF. But when going online I activate it. Once a week the Virus App does automatic scan of my PC and of course, it picks up Officers as "malware" in spite of the whitelisting. I thought I was going to have to perform another uninstall and reinstall. However, I went into the Virus App and under "Settings" I found the "Quarantine Heading" and opened that. There I found the "Officers.exe" listed as the only "malware" showing. My Virus App has a RESTORE option for any "malware" listed and upon doing this I was able to start Officers again.
I use the Virus Program provided by my Internet Provider, and I realize that there are many different Virus programs with different features. However, I would assume that all probably include the aformentioned features in some form or another that I used to get the game running again.
Now, whenever Officers fails to start I know how to remedy the problem easily. I hope this works for you too.
