Where did you download the game from? Was it directly from the site?
Did you download any media for FH? There may have been a mesh/material etc. that was causing the problem.

FH is completely virus-free. You must have gotten a virus from somewhere that says that FH is causing it. If you didn't download it from here, though, that may be the problem. Do you have an anti-virus software? If so, which one?

If your anti virus is Norton, it likes to point fingers at FH, no other antivirus program really ever says that FH has virus's, unless it is because of something you have downloaded from elsewhere and put there. Norton really doesn't like FH for some reason >.>

i downloaded everything that was feralheart from here, no where else. I have AVG 2011, and Ad-Aware. there was these fake virus scans causing the big problem. Win 7 Antivirus 2012 and Win 7 Antispiware 2012. they both started scanning feralheart and all of its files.

Fake antivirus? I get those. That is a worm. All you need is the internet open, and it can get in, it doesn't need to be attached to anything in particular to get in. It is one that frustrates me to no end, because I can never get rid of it and just end up leaving my laptop off for a week or so. It does dissappear if you do that though, because teh person trying to get into your computer gives up XD

My source? After getting it on 3 different computers and my laptop at least twice, I did some serious research on how to stop it and where it was coming from.

ok I am going to download it again and see what happens. there is still a trojan somewhere in my computer so it might attack the folders and if it does, i will just remove feral heart again.

it might not have been feralheart that gave me the virus. the Fake anti virus started scanning feral heart and all of its files saying it was infected, and infecting my computer.

Oy... That's not very good. Fake scans usually end up as horrible trouble. I suggest you get Avast.

Avast is a free, spy-ware or virus protection system. It's awesome, I have it on my lap top and desk top. You can even upgrade to the better versions of avast for a fee. Though, I stick with the free version, they are all just as good.


Here is where you can download avast.

>http://www.avast.com/en-us/free-antivirus-download (http://www.avast.com/en-us/free-antivirus-download)<

If you do download avast, uninstall your other virus protection program, and let avast do it's work. c: Good luck!


Edit:

I got things like that once, when I didn't have avast. It was really horrible, it infected my old, dinosaur computer like the plague, and nearly killed it! We couldn't get anything to stop it, so we tried getting avast, we finally got it download after hours of trying, and it got rid of all the bugs. c:

Then you are the rare exception. A LOT of people come on here saying how Norton says that FH is dangerous, and Norton even blocks FH from connecting to teh internet, thus stopping people playing.

This happened to me also. This happened when I downloaded a mesh, never happened before that. Maybe just download the game and nothing else. I also had the fake antivirus scan thing popped up, destroyed my whole computer and we used a different one. Nasty little thing...

Hope this helped :P

well my mom just restored everything back to December 15th. it seems fine now. the thing said that all the trouble started on the 15th. it did happen again though. This time it didnt attack feralheart but my recyclebin instead.

I had the same virus! When one of the messages pops up, don't click the red 'X'!!! After I got my laptop fixed once, the person said to click alt and F4 instead. It closes out the window, but the red 'X' is pretty much setting up an opportunity for a virus to enter. Mine closed everything out to where I could not enter anything, but hopefully that doesn't happen to you. The virus is supposed to come back every four days, and so my dad keeps fixing it for me. It's late, so I can't really ask him to let me know how he fixes it though. Good luck fixing the problem, and I'm so sorry if I didn't help much.

it really sounds like theres a virus hiding somewhere on your pc. It wont be FH. sometimes the net can redirect people to what looks like your My Computer area. Then it will have a scanning bar. It will tell you that you have viruses on your pc. If you ever get this do not download anything it asks you to. Instead quickly close down the net. It will ask if you want to close it. Make sure you do. This virus tends to lie to you by saying your pc is infected which it isnt, it is to make you download it and once you do you will have a virus. It will tell you that half of your pc files are infected as well. I've had this virus before and it actually nearly killed my pc. Luckly though i formatted my pc to stop it. That was a year ago i was last attacked by a major virus. Since then i've been using Avast AntiVirus program. And MalwareBytes. Avast is good. It runs in the background so that when you browse the web it actually blocks infected sites. It will even give you a warning by making a ting song and then telling you that its blocked it. I've had Avast for a year now and my pc hasnt had any attacks. too top it off though i do often do scans with avast and malwarebytes.

It might be best for you either fix it with an antivirus program. Depending on what it is.
Has the net opened up when you've never actually opened it up yourself? if so then its malware. I've had plenty of virus experience. But havent had any for at least a year now.

If you cant get rid of them with the programs then you might be looking at a format. Not getting rid of Virus ASAP can cause dataloss and hardware failure. i've had hardware failure before and it aint cheap replacing it.
