BattlEye update Trojan/False Positive

Recommended Posts

Basically, my anti virus software (Virgin Media Security, power by Trend Micro) seems to find a Trojan in the latest BE update. I've come to the assumption that it is a False Positive and have been trying to solve the issue.

I tried to put the update into the exceptions list, but I cannot access AppData via the exceptions list browse button. - Even tried copying the location into the exceptions but that too doesn't work.

Turning the AV off while I update BE works, but the file will get deleted shortly after turning it back on.

So, the question here being, where the hell do I go with/from this?

Halp.

I agree that VMS is pretty shit. Had a few problems in the past with it. Was planning on getting AVG but that would be a waste with me building a new PC.

Never heard of Avast until yesterday, what's it like?

Add BEClient.dll to your exception list for the time being. It should be in the BattlEye folder of your install directory.

Ha, Mcafee is terrible. And Norton is just some cheap crap PCWorld tries to flog you when buying a new PC from them.

I'll try what you said Smasht.

See, I followed the location smash said. Put the BEClient and BEServer in the exceptions list to no prevail.
