[quote who="Zuell" reply="15" id="3887659"] I haven't received communication as to how it was resolved, but I can download the game now. [/quote] I would expect Bitdefender has corrected its signature database to rightly 'clear' the false positive....;)

Reply to Website virus in GalCiv IV Support Stardock Forums

Many AV programs can be slow to determine specific signatures as safe. Often they will be working with the idea 'better safe than sorry' and auto-exclude signatures that are only similar but are actually different. That's the process referred to as 'false positive'.

[quote who="Phoon" reply="14" id="3887514"] Did that warrant banning RND? Do you ban everyone that gets frustrated with support? [/quote] Yes. Stardock's sites [plural] are a work-place environment for Stardock Support staff and as such they need to be protected from abuse and personal attack. This is no different to any other workplace environment. We now have a mechanism in place to enable an automatic temporary ban to put a halt to such

I'm old (53) and don't get the badge-things, but if you really are the CEO of Stardock, you should maybe listen more to your community manager (Rammastardock), because the ignorance of the customer perspective in your posts, is pissing me off even more.

[quote who="xode0000" reply="29" id="3886189"] 28 replies over a period of more than a year? That's not exactly what spam is. You simply disagree with the position regarding government overreach that others have posted in this thread.
