Now I've scanned the whole directory and the iccwc3.icc file seems to be affected, too. Anybody else experienced this problem?

It's like they'd rather have 100 false alerts rather than have to say "their software failed." | ||

It was a little weird, because the problem only came up today, without me updating the launcher or anything. So back to getting bashed by D+ players for me :< | ||

I think it's better this way even if it's a hassle, and it's easy to just put it on an ignore list. | ||

I emailed virus@avira.com or whatever email thing it says to email in the help files with the sc .icc file, but then it started calling all the chaos .bwl files and the old penguin plug files viruses too, it's getting really annoying =/ | ||

McAfee just detected wmode.bwl.uTMP wmode[1].bwl associated with iccup launcher as generic trojans and deleted them This is one annoying shit that happened to me before that is why I uninstall the AV and just practice safety when checking out websites. | ||

Can someone help me out? McAfee detected: wmode.bwl, and iccscbn.icc as Trojans and put both in quarantine. I tell McAfee to restore iccscbn.icc and it does for 2 seconds before it removes it again >< I cant launch iccup AH anymore. I dont know how to turn McAfee off. | ||

Open mcAfee, go into: Configure Computer & Files Advanced (from anywhere) Active protection - Turn it off Then go to the home again. Restore Files and restore iccscbn.icc and wmode.bwl This turns off the active protection protection but at least you can run iccup again. :p | ||

The second u turn it back on, it will delete the 2 files and then u'll be forced to reinstall the launcher with mcafee off. So annoying, | ||
