Sytek Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Avast keeps blocking and moving my Net-7 launcher to chest. Reason Embedded Win32:malware-gen. I uninstalled Net-7, deleted old files and re-downloaded Net-7 Unified Installer from site but I cant even download it cause it say's theres a Win32:Malware-gen Embedded. anyone else run into this? Any suggestions short of disabling my Avast Virus protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karu [WDL] Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 It's probably false positive. There is multiple online scanners out there that you can use to verify it against different virus scanners www.virscan.org www.virustotal.com www.metascan-online.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alurra [Fmr. ADV] Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 It is a false positive and quite a few people have experienced and remedied this. The program should be put into the exception list, that should clear it up. If that doesn't work, search the forums here for a solution as many others have already encountered this problem.

GetOffMe Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) I just went thru this on my Windows 8 laptop, with Avast. what I did to fix 1-go to scan exclusions under settings of the scan page of Avast add this to exclusions: C:\Program Files (x86)\Net-7\bin\LaunchNet7.exe 2- see quarantined list in Avast, restore LauncherNet7.exe and OK out of Avast 3-go to C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Earth & Beyond\EBCONFIG, folder. right-click on enbconfig.exe, run as admin. ***some of my guildies like and use Net7config.exe in same folder, doesn't work right for me*** Set resolution and run the test. OK out of config. EnB/Launcher should run now Good Luck GOM Edited February 25, 2015 by GetOffMe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
