Medal of Honor - Pacific Assault: Virus in noCD-exe?
My virus scanner (F-Prot) reports probability of an unknown virus in mohpa.exe, the noCD-exe by RELOADED, obtained via GameCopyWorld.

This could just be due to some suspicious - but harmless - statements in the code. On the other hand, it could be a real virus.

Has anyone else encountered this warning? Is the .exe safe?

Thanks!

Dunham

P.S.: Scanned the mohpa.exe on another PC with McAfee - no virus found. File seems okay, although I don't trust McAfee. I'm gonna try it.

Send a message via ICQ to tbaher
wasn't there a certain RAR file that set off one of those "maybe" virus detectors
I think any copy protection that installs drivers without asking you first would be classified as viruses by a "maybe" scanner
*hates Race Driver 2 for that*

No, the original .exe does not register as "virus suspicious".

As usual, the cracked version is shorter than the original one:
The original is 10.889.623 Bytes long,
the noCD has 9.736.192 Bytes.

I used the suspicious mohpa.exe yesterday and have no further problems - so it's probably a false alarm. The only annoying thing is, that I have to disable virus protection to start the game.

That's not true !!!
Most of the time, cracks are smaler then the original file, because the copy protection is moved out !!!

Hey guys,

NOD32 has been detecting a virus for some half a year in the WIN.COM of my Windows 98 (Gold Edition, English) until they fixed this problem a week or so ago. How about that?!

mohapa vs f-prot
Uninstall f-prot and install Norton Antivirus 2004 or 2005 , Update the virus definations , i dont think you should have the problem again .

As far as f-prot is concerned , I could be that the program might be detecting scripts working in the background and alertng you that here might be a virus.

Mohpa has certin background scripts which might conflict with certin anti-virus programs .
