Never caused any problems for me, McAfee Virus Scan never reported anything, and this is old news. | |||

That person was me and one other guy I believe. I bit of advice...If you like yy-chr, DO NOT delete it because of AVG. I had the exact same problem and when I deleted the program, I could never get it to work again, not even if I downloaded it multipal times | |||

got this problem today because i've installed a new antivir version. i've already send an email to antivir, maybe they have an idea to fix it. (edited by ghettoyouth on 02-03-06 11:21 AM) |

Yeah, I was "that guy" who bought up the problem.
Don't worry about it, YY-CHR is not malicious, and the virus alert is a false alarm. Just disable auto-protection and the program will run fine. |

It has code in it that is rarely seen outside of viruses. As such, when certain antivirus programs detect this while scanning, it detects it as being a new virus. Fairly simple, really... | |||

I've always been curious what code exactly triggers the alert. I mean, I can't think of any other tile editting programs that set it off (though I'll admit that may just be ignorance on my part) and it's not like YY-Chr has anything really "unique" going for it. | |||

F-PROT Antivirus thinks part of the Java installation package (straight from Sun's website) is a "destructive program".
I can only imagine the chaos that will ensue if LM is ever tagged as a virus... |

So...there is a way to desactivate the alert for yy-chr in AVG? | |||

Forehead-slappingly, AVG does not have an exceptions list. The only way to run YY-CHR with AVG installed is to disable the resident shield.
I don't recommend leaving it off, though. |

Oh well ...AVG needs an update for a exception list. | |||

Or you could just buckle down and actually pay for a virus scanner.
Alternatively, I'm certain there's a free scanner out there with an exception list. |
