Nasmw.exe = logger.agent.ajy threat

by Amon · in Torque Game Builder · 11/03/2006 (10:43 am) · 2 replies

Hi! An update on my virus definitions with grisoft's AVG Pro + Firewall picks up the file "nasmw.exe" as a logger worm.

This is getting highly annoying as I can't find a way to stop AVG from picking up the file as bad. The file is in "\TGB\engine\bin\nasm\".

What should I do?

You have to turn off your antivirus software, anti virus software hate Assembler compilers and patchers since they use basically the same technology than viruses do to infect code. However I wouldnt be worried that your nasm is infected, if you are unsure though, you could redownload wnasm from a different secure location and install it again. If you get the same error, then you have nothing to worry about.

Are you AzraelK from the BC.com days? If so, hello m8 :)

Ok, I'll ignore it then. I might fire off an email to grisoft though to let them know that it's being picked up as a virus.
