Norton AV 2010 (at home) and Symantec Endpoint Protection (at work) both detect mw4mercs.exe (main executable for Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries) as a virus (Trojan.Startpage.G).
This program is a game, and not a virus. The makers of this game say they have tried to get a hold of Symantec and are not getting anywhere.
Please fix this false positive. It is causing issues with many users of Norton products. The lack of action by Symantec at this point has already caused me to stop renewing all my Symantec product auto-renewals.
No other anti-virus product detects this file as a virus.
There are tens of thousands of users affected by this issue.
Many have blamed the game, and the publisher. However it is Symantec's fault for this false positive.
Thank you
