Haven't pirated a game in a while.

Downloaded the same Manhunt torrent for the second time and Norton says it's got a Trojan.

What gives?

>Norton
I came here to laugh at you.
>>
>>62128077
I know
But I've got a year left subscribed
>>
>>62128097
So, let me get this straight: you purchased Norton Antivirus for more than a year, but you can't be assed to spend ten bucks on a video game?
>>
>>62128123
Pretty much, but that's not the point
I've tried downloading a shitload of games and Norton finds trojans in each of them

Back when I had ESET's it found no trojans

So, three possibilities:
1. Norton is over-sensitive shit
2. ESET is shit at detection
3. Nowadays vidya torrents are loaded with trojans, back in the day the weren't

Which one is it?
>>
>>62128143
One and two, I lock my answer.
>>
If you are using an antivirus I've got bad news for you.
>>
>>62128143
Who knows? You're downloading executables from sites like TPB, right? Are there any comments? How about the "skulls?" Do you even know what those different colored skulls means?

I'm going to give you the best piece of advice that I can, since you are a Windows user that is paying for Norton Antivirus: Download Linux Mint and purchase a Playstation.

Then you won't have to think so hard about anything.
>>
>>62128168
>muh common sense
I agree, but why not have an antivirus on top of everything?

>>62128173
I already have a playstation, I buy most shit I play, it's just the current situation that's really weird to me.

>I already have a playstation, I buy most shit I play, it's just the current situation that's really weird to me.

Because you have no fucking clue what you're doing, as evidenced by:

>but why not have an antivirus on top of everything?

The fact that you don't know the answer to this means that you have no fucking clue what you're doing.

Is it marking the keygen as a virus? That’s pretty typical of antivirus programs if that’s the file it’s flagging. Usually nothing to worry about. They just try to scare people away from using naughty no no programs like that
>>
you could use wine on any ""unix"" with an unprivileged user account just for wine if you're chicken

Why mint and not Xubuntu/Kubuntu ?
Also console aren't that good, there is a shiton of games that you can't play on them (And you also needs a good TV), forget emulator forget about mods,a lot of indie games ...etc

Linux (or gnu/Linux whatever) is pretty good but is a waste on anything that is not an laptop or a low end computer...

>Antivirus
I also came here to laugh at you.

>>62128064
maybe you should buy some more antivirus software . I recommend mcaffee

How do I torrent games for a PS4?
>>
>>62128143
If you are using torrent just download the .exe first. If that is infected stop downloading and go get another one.
Fitgirls' repacks are clean most of the times so try to download those.
>>
>>62128295
The same way you torrent Norton.
>>
>>62128302
Is fitgirl fit, post nudes and I had problems installing Skyrim with her repacks
>>
>>62128064
1. antivirus only detects OLD viruses.
2. assume anything cracked IS infected and treat it as such. Run it in an isolated machine separate from your home network.
>>
>>62128064
>manhunt
raginstallion or bust
>>
>>62129273
This.
And don't let people saying
"oh the anti-virus thing is a false hit, it's fine" in comments sections or what not trick you into installing it anyway.
There's a lot of bad stuff out there most people don't even know they have especially once they click the "ok give permission" button installing something.
>>
>>62129372
Guy you replied to here, the thing about "false positives" comes from the fact that when a file modifies another file it sets off flags left and right.
Things like cracking programs and key gens do cause false positives.
With that being said, what the antivirus is detecting as a false positive is only one part of a program, the virus payload could still be present and not even detected.

And don't pirate operating systems unless you want to live with a ring 0 root kit.

i pirate almost all games, cuz im broke and games are expensive as fuck. so dont even think about how ur lack of support for video game ccompanies makes u a bad person, cuz in the end pirated games wont give u viruses(not in my case anyway). fuck the companies, fuck the money and enjoy the games
