It's not a virus. For some reason, a lot of anti virus programs have been picking it up as such as of lately. It's the same install file that's been there for the past several months. Nothing has changed. Are you using AVG or Norton? Those seem to be the ones that pick up the installer / exe as a virus.

Yeah, we've been getting a slew of tickets from users of AVG picking up the same thing. It's not a virus.

AVG hates Ragnarok.

I just had it scan MY Minisetup and now it says it's a virus as well, haha.

So yeah, nothing to worry about, just ignore that.

AVG for some reason, once again, is picking it up as a virus. It is not a virus. strange thing though, is when you try to look up that "backdoor.ragnarok" virus that it's picking up, there's nothing about it in the virus encyclopedia on AVG's website.

I'm going to add this to my FAQ guide when I get home.

I had to delete AVG. Now when I use Avasti I can again play RO. I made a stupid thing when I allowed AVG to delete AnthemRO.exe. Luckily I had that file in my storage hard drive from where I copied it back. AVG has some bug and it is also known in the official server.

If you search on AVG's encyclopedia of virus' you will not find those virus' named by it in there. It seems to be a glitch up of some sort o.o

Edit: I was PMed this by a player, which is really good information as to why it's causing this problem:

Maybe you guys can put that information when they download it since a lot of people seem to be asking about it. That way, they also won't panic when they get the notice from AVG.

Title: Re: virus on mini setup during after download
Post by: RazorX on March 06, 2008, 10:00:08 am

ok... so i deleted the "virusses"....
well i first moved them to vault and then i emtied the vault..
and now, after installing AnthemFullsetup & Minisetup, and i did all patchings, it still does not work and it still says:

 FOXDYE
Error: Unable to open AnthemExe.exe

and when i go into the RO map, the AnthemExe icon is not the RO face char Icon...
when i click it it says: Well its dutch so ill try to says this correctly :P

Cannot get acces to this item. You possibly have no Autorisation for this item.
im clueless now :( :P

Title: Re: virus on mini setup during after download
Post by: DA~Kaitou on March 06, 2008, 10:04:04 am

Did you open RO through Dyefire?

Hmm, I dunno. You might want to read the link posted by Denia from another player up there.

Uhm. The "viruses" are the files you need to play the game. Anthem.exe is the file that AVG sees as a virus. Ergo, by deleting this, you cannot play.

Yeah, but he reinstalled. But I guess since he didn't shut off AVG, it still doesnt work.

Just in-case people miss the link...

AVG anti-virus issues and conflicts
Date Posted: Mar. 06, 2008

To all Ragnarok Players,

We would like to inform you that we are aware of the AVG anti-virus issues or conflicts with regards to the Ragnarok.exe files. We advise everyone not be alarmed, as the virus alert is merely just a false alarm.

We are already working with the developers of AVG to remedy this but as a temporary solution, we advise everyone to try the following measures:

- You can turn off your AVG anti-virus (reminder: you will be open to any virus ones this is done) before patching Ragnarok.
- You can turn off your AVG anti-virus and replace it with another anti virus for now.
- If all Ragnarok.exe files are already in you virus vault, please uninstall your client then turn-off your AVG anti-virus.
- Reinstall Ragnarok client without AVG anti-virus.

Please check back for updates and further announcements.

Thank you very much.

Title: Re: virus on mini setup during after download
Post by: paladin181 on March 06, 2008, 11:48:08 am

for avg you have to manually disable the active protection by opening the control center and going to one of the tabs (i can't remember which it is) and telling it "Stop fucking with my files for a bit" and you'll be ok.

That was sarcasm, btw. But there is an option in the control center to disable active protection.
