Shockwave > Trojan Options

[Abertawe]

Hello, new to the community and to Shockwave and already I have a problem.

Having played ZH for many years and enjoying every bit of it I have become bored of the normal play and decided to get a new mod, so after doing some searching I came across Shockwave and downloaded it.
Now once it was downloaded I extracted the file and opened up the installer and the mod was installed without any problems so after that I tested it out and liked what I saw however, about halfway through a skirmish round on a 2 player map my anti virus started singing and a popup came up telling me that shw_nor.exe was infected with a trojan.

Okay, so I decided to remove the file but for whatever reason AVG failed to remove it...Or had it? After checking the ZH folder there was no such file in there. Good I thought...I'll try re-installing the mod to see if that fixes things and nope, another popup came up saying there are behavioral changes from the shw_11.exe so I had to remove that as well.

I had downloaded the mod through MODDB/Gamefront.

I recommend everyone should scan the .exe before installing the mod.

Sorry for the double post.
After downloading SHW mod again, re-scanning with AVG found no threats. After this I started doing a full scan of the pc and opened up the SHW launcher, clicked on start and the game started however due to a lot of lag I had ended the process and not five minutes after that an AVG popup window was shown on screen with the same message as I had yesterday.
IDP.Trojan.512A4614

It seems that such a threat keeps originating with the shw_nor.exe and also infects the Shw_11.exe...
I am wondering if anyone has a non-infected shw_nor.exe or the installer?

I'm pretty sure that Shockwave isn't infected by a Trojan and you security system just thinks that it is I also have AVG and it thinks the same thing and I've disregarded it and let Shockwave run and have yet to encounter any problems

antivirus sometimes detected exe files that aren't dangerous has dangerous.i haven't have any problem qith shockwave

AVG is just a bit trigger-happy with the virus detection.
