| TGHP Profil: New Penguin | Hi. I'm freaking tired of windows XP. I wanted to try out something new, and downloaded: 'bricopack-vista-inspirat-ultimate-2-crystalxp.net-en-130.zip'. When it was downloaded completly I tried to unpack the files. However, Norton blocked a file: 'Infostealer.Gampass'. I know Norton gives loads of fake warnings, but i really need some to confirm it's not a virus. Yeah, I am a hardcore gamer, so it's a bit bad if i lose all my passwords. Thanks.
Regards, TGHP. | |

Hi.Yeah I downloaded it from CrystalXp.net.
Does it change the startup (you know, when windows xp's loading) as well?
Thanks.

No it doesn't do that
For that you've to use BootSkin [freeware] or Tuneup Utilities [shareware] or several more softwares you get by Googling | |

I got Norton 360 today. Hopefully it's a bit better.
I'm just a big fan of Norton. Message edited by TGHP on 12-20-2008 at 08:47:28 PM

Tanshin Profil: Penguin Pro | I really don't see why everybody bashes norton so much. I have never gotten a false alarm in my life.
Anyways, I've had good luck with Inspirat so, hopefully you do too! ---------------

Agree
But the Symentec Antivirus does not use much of RAM like Norton and it can be updated by the same updating files used for Norton
I personally use AVG since it has a free version and easy to update  | |

Have you ever gotten ANY alarm at all? LOL. Think about it. Norton's detection rate is less than 45%... While AVG 8 Is at about 92%

Oh yes, I get alarms, just never false ones
Plus 2009 is faster and I absolutely despise McAfee and some of the other ones out there based on my terrible experience with them. ---------------

Try to reboot. If that doesn't help, reinstall AVG. Remeber, when you are on the net without a firewall + antivirus you are PREY. So, be careful  ---------------
