I bought my copy of SH3 from Encore which is updated to 1.4. I'm trying to download the 1.4b patch, but every link I've tried Avast! tells me the file has a Trojan on it. :damn:
At first I thought it was just the filefront version of the file(which is the one i downloaded first) but when I tried the ubisoft link and the gameinformer link its the same thing. Whats the deal? :shifty:

1.4 is the same as 1.4b
No need for you to patch as already done so

Ah. Thanks, the b threw me off. But still, its alarming that the file has a trojan. :down:

My guess is Avast is being over cautious as can happen
Doubt very much that ALL patches from different sites would be infected
Though you never know
Maybe it's a false positive by your Antivirus... update virus defenitions! or send the file to your Antivirus Company.
My antivirus (by Avira) made so with dangerouswater.exe. Accoridng to the software, there was a dialer inside... later Avira sent me the analysis report: it was a false positive!

Your software's probably just be freaking out. I doubt Ubi would have a file containing a trojan on their site.
Like everyone said, it's probably just your antivirus being too paranoid. If you want to be sure, upload the file for online check here (http://www.virustotal.com/) or here (http://virusscan.jotti.org/). If you don't mind uploading a big file. :lol:
