I know this has been brought up a few times but I'd just like to confirm. Shockwave does not have a Trojan in it right? It's just AVG giving me a false positive. I also am having a problem with installing now as AVG deleted files because of this and now every time I re installing the files that AVG deleted won't even be installed. Like the Installer just skiped over them. Help me please.

Yes I like Touhou... and the problem is?



Shockwave does not have a Trojan. That being said, to install it you should temporarily turn off your AVG and then install Shockwave.

I have the same problem so I'll wait for you to do it first and then you can tell us if that works or not.

It's works fine now. Run the installer as Admin then once done, got to AVG, click computer then go settings then click on the Exceptions tab. Just find all the .exe files that have the Shockwave logo (There are 9 for me) inside the Zero Hour folder and just add them to the list. Game works fine now and the Laptop ain't dead so yea. XD

This is one of the reasons I switcehd to Avast. AVG keeps deleting all my c... properly bought games that I totally got with my own money.

On a serious note, Avast is much better than AVG.
