Webroot alert me yesterday, as it already quaranated it and I looked up what it was and I was shocked to see that was come from "Rule the Waves 2". I decided to log in forum to see if any members already knew about it and I found out it is really old news. I still should let you know and you may need to security scanning your computer to be sure.

I still should let you know and you may need to security scanning your computer to be sure. I've had the same issue with webroot. When the virus shows up, just tell webroot to allow it and everything will be fine. This link will show you how to do it. docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/Content/ManagingQuarantine/BlockingOrAllowingFiles.htm |

We upload the RTW2 files to VirusTotal each release, they are scanned locally by multiple AV engines before they are uploaded, and the server itself runs a scan to boot...so be assured the files are clean when posted.
The DRM for RTW2 is what a couple of anti-virus engines apparently give false positives for, *especially* Webroot. Each update I submit new samples to the major AV engines for clearance, but a couple of them (aahhmmm...i'm looking especially at you WebRoot) sometimes do not take action to clear the false alert.
Thanks.

Don't use antiviruses of questionable repute. They are by design flagging tons of false positives because their business model is to scare you into paying, or at the very least convince you of their (in reality questionable) utility by showing that they can detect "viruses".
