MyBrute is an online avatar combat game based in flash thats extremely popular around most sites, I'd not had a problem till yesterday but now every time I go to the site, any of my character pages or whatever I keep getting the message that my AV has blocked the downloader.swif.c
I use Norton Security Online Provided by BT Yahoo! Online protection, (Basically Norton AV + Firewall) and the only recent resources online I can find are replicas of Symantec's treat page which basically just say to update AV and run a scan, which I'm doing but it hasn't found anything yet, I also cleared out my temp internet files for good measure.
I've tried going to other sites that use flash in the meantime but had nothing else, it seems to only be MyBrute that it does it with. Also it seems the weapons/skills panel in the cell won't load, nor will any past battles or whatever, probably due to that being based on whatever flash aspect.
I've scanned with Norton and that came up totally clean. MalwareBytes found a few registry keys it deemed as trojans (though one of those at least was a false positive, a setting from one of my other security progs) yet now its showing clean and I'm still having the same problem with MyBrute.
Anyone had any success with removing this or finding out exactly what the problem is? Both my Flash and AV + Firewall are up to date.
I currently have over 12 forums alone in my favourites full of posts about this and theres thousands more on google that all sprung up after a couple of days ago: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=MyBrute+Downloader.swif.c&meta=
However so far out of those mentioning their AV program who have the problem I've only seen Symantec users reporting this and most others seem to be able to play fine. I'm not sure whether this is a false positive, a legit alert that the site has been infected, or something on my computer manifesting on there. As said the number of posts about this are escalating every minute since its such a popular game, no-ones really been able to solve anything yet. Would be good if someone from Symantec could check out the site and deem whether its just Symantec programs reporting a false positive or something more sinister.
