Title: Is this game going to give me a virus?
Post by: Duckman896 on September 04, 2012, 10:02:14 PM

When I launch bout cheetah it says " Internet issues have been detected, however, you can still press start to attempt to play.
Pressing start does nothing and rogers online protection says that the file contains a virus. can anyone help me? it has been years since I have play this game and really want to play again.
(later on)
Well after looking into it, the bout.dat file that the patcher downloads is a virus and my computer firewall is quarantining the file. So my question is: is this file going to give a virus to my computer or what. A reply from an admin/moderator would be very helpful to decide if i am going to play this game or not.

As Cooky said it's a false-positive. Antiviruses think it's a virus because of the way it is compiled.
To play this game again you only need to add bout.dat as an exception to your anti-virus.

I'm assuming you have the Avira antivirus, or AVG, those really dislike boutcheetah the most.
