Default Newest version of Norton........

It keeps removing DSsetup.dll. This was expected but when I go to restore the file and set the exclusions it doesn't seem to save. The next time I run the .exe to connect to P99 Norton freaks out again and blocks it once more and removes the file as it keeps thinking it's a trojan.

Anyone else run into this and find a work around?


**EDIT**

Looks like with the new norton you have to go into settings, and manually add the entire eqemu folder and the .exe that opens titanium. You'd think that restoring and excluding would work but nope. You've gotta go in manually and set each one.

Better idea is just to remove Nortons and go with Avast or hell even AVG free versions better then nortons.

Antivirus companies have been caught making viruses in the past, and if you've ever had Norton expire on you... it turns into a virus until you pay to update to the newest version of it.

Definitely think about AVG or something instead.

Also for anyone else encountering this, once you've got the exception in place just unzip the patch files again and it'll replace the quarantined/deleted one.
