Norton «ate» LRT 4.1 !!! - Lapsefinger - 2015-07-02 I just tried to upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1, but Norton saw the file as a threat and deleted it, and assured me that I didn't need to take any further action, my computer was perfectly safe! (* Insert foul language here*) Have any of you experienced this? BTW, here's what Norton has to say about the threat: Updated: February 15, 2012 3:15:47 PM Type: Other Risk Impact: High Systems Affected: Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows XP Behavior WS.Reputation.1 is a detection for files that have a low reputation score based on analyzing data from Symantec’s community of users and therefore are likely to be security risks. Detections of this type are based on Symantec’s reputation-based security technology. Because this detection is based on a reputation score, it does not represent a specific class of threat like adware or spyware, but instead applies to all threat categories. The reputation-based system uses "the wisdom of crowds" (Symantec’s tens of millions of end users) connected to cloud-based intelligence to compute a reputation score for an application, and in the process identify malicious software in an entirely new way beyond traditional signatures and behavior-based detection techniques. RE: Norton «ate» LRT 4.1 !!! - Gunther - 2015-07-02 It's a false positive that has already be reported to Norton. Those AV programs get worse and worse... Just add the installer to the ignore list, it's clean. RE: Norton «ate» LRT 4.1 !!! - Lapsefinger - 2015-07-04 It was only quarantined, so there was no real problem, it was easy to restore it. It just made me jump in my chair, that's all! :-) |
