Norton Security Issue with Version 1.0, Norton Security Issue Options

[Brian]

I've used your bot program for several years. Thanks for the continued efforts.

I downloaded version 1.0 on 12/13/15 from http://rcbot.bots-united.com/. Double-clicking rcbot2installer causes Norton Security to intervene, flag the file as medium risk, stop the install, and automatically delete the file. The code is:

WS.Reputation.1

It then does the same for these two files:

rcbot2meta.dll
metamod.2.ep2v.dll

Is this a Norton issue? Do the files need to be registered with Norton?

Hey Brian,

Welcome to the RCbot forum... Perhaps this will help...

You can disable that feature of Norton temporarily, to install rcbot. At the bottom of that page it says this :

- If you find you need to download a lot of low-reputation items, you can always toggle Download Insight on and off in the main Norton GUI window.

There is such a low number of rcbot users worldwide, rcbot probably barely shows up on their reputation system. How many symantec users did it show, under 10, under 20?

In all the years I have used rcbot, I have never found a virus in rcbot. You could submit the files to symantec, if it bothers you? They will find them clean, and maybe that will help with the reputation for a while?

There is a dispute process, but the link on that page seems bad...?

LOL @ Norton! it's a false positive so don't worry about it.
Just add the files to Norton's exclusion list or something.
