if from the official site, you should contact them on their own forums.

[aceloop]

just looked, got a thread already v0.9.4 <trojan?.

damn Kaspersky has never let me down, just have to hope that "Kaspersky" fix the problem.

[Squall-Leonhart]

just add it to the trusted zone. / ignore list.

[IamWhatIam]

there must be a virus on your computer which would have infected the newly downloaded file.

^ if you check post 5. im not the only one.

Add to exception list.

Else, change antivirus. Its well known why any warnings would pop in for emulators.
Anyway, the builds from the central sources are clean, long story made short.

its just a false positive HCR, nothing to uninstall an av over. it happens, besides emulators tend to work in ways that seem similar to trojans and keyloggers.

[Hard core Rikki]

You know that I know that, right ?
If people want pcsx2 and cant manage to use a mere exception list, the easy pick is either give up ps2 emulation or seek something else.

emulation requires a brain

[PCXL-Fan]

Its because you're using the vm build. Its attempting to secure the same memory area that kaspersky secures for itself during startup, and thus is detected as a virus because virus (some viruses attempt to hijack av programs)

:P I wish that were the case, but its not. PCSX2 and kaspersky 2009 are completely compatible for the vm build.

[tallbender]

it is highly possible that this threat is a false alarm since AVG,BitDefender disagree of that
