Default setup_cfg_exe wolves of steel flagged trojan

Good morning,

I recently bought SH5 and tried to install the The Wolves of Steel v2.2.5_SH5 Expansion Pack_Full.

Upon reaching the end of the install, Norton (some people hate it I know) flagged it as a trojan.gen.9 and removed it.

After such, it looked like the mod install did not complete.

Any similar happenstance with this? Comments / suggestions welcome.

Thanks!

False positive certainly. With Avast or Kaspersky I don't get any alerts, and you can still send-in the file for further control, after which you certainly get the reply that it's a false positive.

Note posted by Vecko on the download page...

Note for anti-virus software users: Because TWoS installer is not certified by windows, there is a possibility that some AV programs will recognize it as a threat. Of course, the warning is false positive which means that you can ignore it or even submit the files for the analysis, if you like.

Thank you for responding! Norton did the same to a Combat Mission file the other day as well, which was a FP.

I'll get Norton not to protest and get the installation complete.

Turn off the Anti-Virus for a few minutes before proceeding with the TWOS installation.
Setup the SH5.exe as an exception before starting the game for the first time.
