Shanester Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 Greetings, uTorrent 3.4.5.41372 said there there was an update available, so I said to download it. Norton AntiVirus Online then detected a virus in the download. I've attached the entry from the log file. Are the uTorrent servers infected? How do I fix this? Thanks, Shane. virus log.txt
DreadWingKnight Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 It's just the modules from the optional offers. You should be able to install safely. However, norton has historically been more virus-like than most of the offers we've bundled.
Shanester Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Posted February 19, 2016 Norton Antivirus automatically stripped the virus/module from version 3.4.5.41712. Would that have corrupted the download? I don't think it will be installed until next time I open uTorrent.
PiusX Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Since one keeps using bad software-Norton. Any help given is meaningless at this point in time.

Shanester Posted March 1, 2016 Author Report Posted March 1, 2016 I've added this folder to the list of Norton AntiVirus Online scan exclusions: %appData%\uTorrent\ I'll wait to see what happens the next time it tries to update. Shane.
MarkUle Posted March 4, 2016 Report Posted March 4, 2016 if Norton AntiVirus gives you a warning, yourupdate package may contain some malicious. wHY NOT download anohter version
DreadWingKnight Posted March 4, 2016 Report Posted March 4, 2016 Why are you trusting norton to protect you from anything other than using your computer properly?
