My antivirus found a virus in x-mas package. I can conferm that because when I opened SS 2008 custom mision everything went under sea and was opened "go to" with blank spot.(In normal there were red and yellow spots)
In simple i couldn't do anything after that.When i restarted PC antvirus was showing virus and it was unkonw but was located in X-Mas packeg.

There is definitely no virus in the Super Pack. And no virus could cause that problem, if you have it.

Question 1: What virus did your antiivirus say it was?

Question 2: And what version of which antivirus package do you have?

[update]

Just to be absolutely certain, I downloaded the XMAS pack set-up program from VSTEP. It is the same as when I supplied it to them. No changes (if had been infected, it would have to be changed, wouldn't it?). Also, it has been downloaded by thousands of people, I believe. And only you seem to be infected.

I also scanned the download (image below). No problems with it.

So you must be infected yourself. Something on already your system has infected the file. That's the way they work. Or perhaps you've made a mistake?

im scanning with Malware Bytes and MSE.

and it shows me that it is clean. its a false alarm  ivanoile.

Hi guys,

As an additional confirmation, I cannot find anything wrong with the package either. It is clean.

Although I can't run it on my mac, I still downloaded and scanned it from my mac. Clear for me aswell.

Hi

Got this web page blocking notification at the shipsim.com main page. It's from NOD32 antivirus with latest definitions. anyone else noticed the same?  im having latest definitions of the antivirus files.

A lot of people are getting this at the moment, there's a topic in tech support.

Best advice is, stay off it until VSTEP can sort it out

[Stuart2007]

Oh yes, right shipaddict. I'm glad you didn't cause a panic with any sweeping statements.

I can't say anything about the download packs as I've not downloaded them. At all.

But the homepage looks as clean as the exhaust on a Prius. Look at the 'code'...

[TerryRussell]

My advice, as already given several times is that I am not sure what this is. It might simply be a malformed page, or it might be something more serious. I don't know which.

Now, enough guessing, thanks. Just avoid the page until we know what is going on.

To avoid further useless speculation and endless repetition, this thread is now locked.

The problem with the page at www.shipsim.com has now been fixed. That page should no longer cause your antivirus program to give you warnings.

Sorry for the disruption.

This topic will remain locked as there is no more to be said.

Thanks!
