according to other topic's.....nortan says that even though its not really something that you have to worry about


everyone says nortan sux, and from what i've experienced with it, it does

forget nortan for any/all anti-virus use, get something else like McAfee


other than that, turn off nortan and re-download it (that is, if nortan auto-deleted RO)

R U downloading it from the official site? If so then norton is prolly picking up on some client side software that allows the server machine to see the status of the clients software. I might be wrong, but with some games I have found this to be the case. Chances are it may be some sort of trojan but I doubt it will cause any problems.


Even if it is a trojan not to do with teh game, the people who normaly use them arnt out to cause any troubles, theyre just nosey and wanna see what youve got.

NB - Yeah, Norton is shite, Get McAfee

NB2 - It is technicaly illegal for companys to use techniqes such as this, so if it is actualy part of the client install and not just a mistake, Grav*ty could get into alot of trouble.

just disable Norton's, download clients, install them, after installation delete the client installations or burn them to cd/dvd, then re-enable Norton's.

simple, don't need to buy anything else. and the trojan thingy doesn't appear again after you install, it seems to be related to the installation file.

usually there's an icon in the tray, if you right click, there should be an option to disable or something like that, on NAV '03 it should say disable autoprotect or something like that.
