I could not complete the EB1.1 installation due to a worm in the download.Kaspersky disinfected by shutting down my computer.
As a result,EB1.1 was no longer in my computer.I tried to download using torrent Atomic games but each was susequently disinfected.
It seems to happen at the very end of the installation when trying to set up the start icon.
I am very much looking forward to playing EB,so if you can fix this a.s.a.p.it will be much appreciated
Tbh seems more like an over-work by Kaspersky. Could be you have enabled something like "block any potentially unsafe file"?

No,I was informed that was highly dangerous and that it could only be removed by shutting down.It had already been quarantined.
I think it's one of those situations where Kaspersky is fooled into thinking it contains a bug. In general good as better not being able to install something than getting a nasty worm but sometimes AV software sees worms where none are present.
All I can say is that Avast does not consider EB1.1.exe a threat, and sofar i don't think we had any virus/worm problems, apart from Kaspersky going off.

I run Kaspersky, it's nice and secure...to the point of paranoia at times. Just put the installer on the authorized list and you'll be fine.

Thanks for the advice,Basileus.I'll do that.I'm really looking forward to playing this game.
It's a false positive. There is no worm whatsoever in any of the EB-versions, you can download from the Site.
If it comes from one of the sources listed on our site, it is guaranteed clean. ~:)
