Im coming back to DayZ. Problem with mod app

Recommended Posts

Hello

So i've decided to come back to the amazing world that is DayZ Mod.  :D 

But i have a problem, my antivirus detects a malware generator inside the .exe file from the launcher. 
Has anyone else had this problem? I can remove it from quarantin but i just want to get some confirmation that its safe first.

Sorry if i've posted in wrong forum.

The "virus" message says the following:

HEUR/QVM06.1.Malware.Gen


//Jarmo

Ive answered your pm but for others 

 

the launcher contains no malicious code, its safe to use.

the HEUR means heuristic detection 

 

its quite funny when you look at the avg detection for heuristic it quite often finds its own temporary files and deletes them as malicious code.

 

most Win32/Heur are false positives if you do any development of object based languages to compile applications 9 times out of ten it will show up as a virus as its unknown code.an actual scan of the file records in no viruses
