So for the past week or so, every time I restarted my computer, Norton decided to remove "riftpatchlive.exe" from my machine. Now, given that this is a REQUIRED file to run Rift, I kinda need it. I have been running Rift from Steam for 4+ years now, and that file has never been a problem, so I'm not sure WHY it is now being removed. I have fixed the problem by excluding my Steam program files from the scan, but I really don't like doing that, because I feel it might put my computer at risk from other potentially shady programs. While it is fixed, I had to COMPLETELY redownload the 24 gigs of Rift as well for NO reason, which I am not pleased about. The file that was being removed WAS NOT MALICIOUS so please do not label it as such.
