Default FIX for DSETUP.DLL / Antivirus reporting this as a Trojan

Suddenly antivirus programs are deleting, quarantining, removing this file due to the specific nature of it. It's detecting trojan-like activity.

This file is basically used to look at what other .exe's are running, and is mainly a anti-cheat countermeasure put in place by the devs. Someone a little more tech savvy might explain this better.


HOW TO FIX THIS:

Step 1) Tell your antivirus to ignore this file, or your entire P1999 directory if you want to be cavalier about it. It won't scan it any longer. Most(all?) antiviruses should have this capability.

Step 2) Go re-download the latest patch files http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=155457 and copy them into your P1999 directory.

Step 3) Log back into EQ and train/flame/poopsock to your heart's content.
