Trazier 2 Posted January 16, 2013 Hi, has anyone experienced this? Just yesterday battleye updated from like 1.184 to 1.186, only something went wrong with my update. Something REALLY wrong. Like, it downgraded itself to 1.164, tried to download a trojan virus, and it made my computer beep... like, not put a beep sound out of the speakers, it made THE ACTUAL COMPUTER INSIDE THE BOX BEEP. I've never seen (heard) that before, except when I turn it on, and that's just a 'beep' this is like a little 'boopboopBEEP' noise.... But yeah. Then Avira says i've got some trojan file trying to infect my computer.So now every time I try to connect to a server, the following happens....Battleye client: Initialized (V1.164)Battleye client: Server requiring version 1.186. Updating...(15 seconds pass)Battleye client: Update completed, restarting...BOOPBOOPBEEP!!!Battleye client up to date: (V1.164)And here come the antivirus warnings about a trojan trying to install itself on my computer.Then if I click OK and join the server, I get on, maybe 20 seconds pass.YOU WERE KICKED OFF THE GAME: BATTLEYE CLIENT FAILED TO UPDATE.So what the frick can I do about this? Since this started happening (I'll point out my game was working FINE until they released battleye 1.186...), I uninstalled Battleye and went to reinstall it from steam. It tells me i'm missing an executable file and to contact steam support......getting no answer from them, I deleted arma2, arma2:OA from my computer, then spent the last 3 hours redownloading them all.Turned the game back on.... same shit is happening. Can anyone help me here? I literally pay money for a server I can no longer play on. I can't figure out what's going on, and I don't know what to do about this trojan warning. I feel like someone hacked the battleye updater thing and now it's just trying to stuff a virus in my machine or a keylogger to steal my arma key.Plus the fact that my version went from 1.184, and trying to update to 1.186, it downgraded itself to 1.164, and is now virus laden.Someone help? I'm at the end of my wits here. I have NFClue how i'm supposed to proceed from this point. Any other time i've encountered an issue 'delete everything and reinstall it' has worked, be it broken warcraft, broken everquest, broken league of legends, whatever.... but for some reason that WON'T work on arma/battleye.I'm kind of lost here. I can't even fathom what i'm supposed to do now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmashT 10907 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Please report this to Avira as a false positive and put the BEClient.dll on your exception list for the time being.http://dayzmod.com/f...in-beclientdll/No idea why your computing is beeping, that's usually indicative of a hardware error.

Trazier 2 Posted January 16, 2013 It didn't list beclient.dll in the thing though, It said something about Trojan.Stratork or something.Also i've never heard that beeping or gotten that error before. Do you have any idea why my battleye went from 1.184, to 1.164, instead of 1.186? I'm going to try that thing you linked about putting it in as an exception when I get some time to play this afternoon.I just love this game, and i'm so nocturnal since I go me the nightvision FN FAL. Love dat rifle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted January 16, 2013 You can actually look up that beeping on startup, it's a code. As well as doing what Smash said you need to run a full virus scan before you attempt to connect again, it sounds like you have something malicious installed.

OrLoK 16188 Posted January 16, 2013 is the beeping coming from the internal speaker? There's usually a mini one hidden away in many pc's and the mix of long short beeps is a code which indicates an error.Google em for a list.some HDD's also beep when they're about to die. More of a chirrup sound usually, but can sound beepish.RgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blunt_zephyr 51 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Failing Hardware? I'd cringe at the thought of a video game changing bios settings and/or hardware-stuff :o(or messed-up start-up config? CCleaner?) Edited January 16, 2013 by Blunt_Zephyr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shakyagaming 10 Posted January 16, 2013 The beeping sound is the sound avira makes when the 'avira has detected a virus' window pops up, nothing to worry about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted January 16, 2013 It actually happens when Avira detects a virus.Maybe I misunderstood then. I thought he meant the beeping signals given by the internal speaker on startup, not a software driven noise via external speakers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trazier 2 Posted January 16, 2013 Heh, it wasn't beeping on startup, It was doing it after 'upgrading' to BE 1.164, when it was at 1.184. I just compared the noise to the noise I do hear on startup, because i've never heard anything else come from the actual computer before. Virus scan said nothing was there though, so... hopefully adding that exception to avira (Which was the virus program everyone having trouble was using) might fix the issue.
