Symantec anti-virus quarantines OpenSim executable

[Katrina Easton]

Hi,

I've downloaded and installed the latest version of OpenSim (3.0 beta). When I try to run it, my Symantec anti-virus software flags it as a possible virus and quarantines the executable. I tried restoring the file, but it gets quarantined again the next time I try to run it. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Katrina

Hi Katrina,

You can change the setting of Symantec anti-virus to exclude certain folders when performing automatic scanning. This is a temporary solution however; we have filed a false positive report to Symantec about it. If you would like to file additional reports please go to https://submit.symantec.com/false_positive/.


Thanks,

Kevin
