I just updated Rise of Flight to version 1.025. I launched it and immediately got a warning from my Norton 360 Antivirus that it detected suspicious activity in a file ROF.EXE and deleted it. WOW. I am currently grounded.
I did a Recovery. And Norton 360 remove ROF.EXE again when I launched it.
HELP!!! Does anyone know a work around.

If there's an option in Norton to submit false pos files then do so. Norton should sort this out.

Thanks Fellows
Adding RoF.exe to the Norton 360 Exclusions List did the trick. The Recovery did its job. Norton did not quarantine my executable this time. All is right with the world now.
And I am not grounded any more.

My advice is to ditch Norton. Too invasive. There are much better alternatives. PC Doctor is very good for instance.

Norton is the beginning of your problem... Always hated this piece of crap software, sneaking everywhere doing god knows what... like a 100 heads hydra fooling around your PC... I'm with the FREE and much less intrusive AVAST for 8 years, never had any trouble!

Same here, first thing I did on my PCs was to remove any Norton installed software (not always easy...) I use free Avira since years, never had a problem since...

antiviruses are malwares, install them if you don't know how to use a computer.

+1 X infinity to dump Norton. More intrusive than malware.
I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.
