Virus?
my anti-virus Norton Internet Security found a virus and deleted it, so game doesn't work.

Have you tried making an exception in Noton's settings for the game?

just disable norton re-install Benefit

I'm pretty unsure about disabling my antivirus; it detected 404sight.exe to have a Trojan.Gen.SMH, so I'm in doubt about how really legit this game is.

I'm rather not installing it by now.

Yeah mine did the same also, I set it as a exclusion and re-verified the game cache and then I could play again. Probably just a false positive

Same here. MY Norton found Trojan.Gen.SMH in 404sight.exe and so I can't play it becuase of a 'missing executionable'. I keep re-verifying but it doesn't work because Norton deletes the files.

Okay! So. Straight from an engineer's mouth:

"I read about Suspicious. Cloud.2. It's a heuristics scan where Norton uses other sources like user community and popularity of the exe's and what other people have reported it to be as opposed to signature matching. Its a way for Norton to tell, "Hey this hasn't been on the internet for long, and I am going to flag it as a virus because I can"

You can google the flag itself if you'd like. In fact, we recommend it. For those of you reporting Trojan.Gen.SMH...well, that's also been known as a false positive.

It would be interesting to know why Norton's heuristics detect it as a Trojan.

Perhaps because it opens a listening socket on the network? What's it for? Are you working on a multiplayer mode?

im not 100% sure but i think you can submit your game/program to norton as a "false positive"
Edit: i can confirm that they do have a "whitelist"

Uninstall Norton, use a better AV that doesn't act like malware itself.
