Maybe when last resort installed kaspersky was inclined to check the folder and found a virus from somewhere else. I've had Last Resort 0.6 installed on this computer for nearly a year and I've never gotten any virus warnings from it.
Cookie, where did you get your Last Resort mod? The original hosting website for Last Resort is currently down. If you downloaded it from there, there is a slim chance that the hosting website had been compromised. Please delete all downloads from that site if you feel that you do not trust them. You can download a clean version of Last Resort from this website. Before installing, scan it your AV scanner, also try using www.virustotal.com as a second opinion. I have never had any issues with our download nor has any guest other then yourself bring this issue to our attention. If you had downloaded Last Resort from our website, please post a screen shot of Kaspersky's findings. Keep in mind that since Kaspersky's AV scanner works really well, sometimes too well and identifies many as a false positive especially game files. I use COMODO and a full version of Malwarebytes and haven't have Last Resort identified as malicious. Keep us informed. Thanks.
There has been another occurance of this false postive detection.

I feel it is necessary to document the steps we are taking to assure you, members of DnC and members of Swat3Reunited community that the file is safe to download and use.
We have submitted a False Positive report to Kaspersky and also to Norton Antivirus. We will post their findings here.
WE STAND BEHIND OUR MODDERS AND MAPPERS. If you ask me I think this is BS, given the date it was uploaded and the many members that use Last Resort (including myself); members that add up to an array of Antivirus programs, virus definitions updates, and countless antivirus updates and full system scans. If you want to download the file let me know, I have no problem giving you the direct link, I sent to Kaspersky and Norton.
Norton has recieved the False Positive submission.
We would like to inform you that your submission has been received successfully by Symantec Security Response and a tracking number has been created for it.

I have made mods for the Swat 3 community for years and have always been extremely careful to ensure that they are malware/virus free (and that my machines at home are clean).
Nothing should be installed in the app folder. Everything that is installed is placed in the Swat 3 folder (other than shortcuts to the mod).
The installer software that we use is called Installer Vice. I don't think it would install anything temporarily to aid in the install process.
I suspect they are false positives because scanning the install file on my HD shows it to be clean with Avast and with Spybot S&D.
No response from Norton yet. I am guessing either they are too busy taken care of real threats and/or it's a false positive.
Look people it's simple. 1. Update you antivirus Software, virus definitions and such and do a full system scan. 2. Download install Malwarebytes and update it and do a full system scan. 3. Install Last Resort. And if you get an alert let us know.
If you don't want to install it, don't. Remember 90% of members here use Last Resort "ON" so you will not be able to join the reunions and games hosted within.
