WARNING! Posh Boutique 2

GameHouse Forums > The Lounge

The poshboutique2.exe file is infected with a spyware/keylogger virus. Norton caught it on my computer but wanted to warn others.

Funny I am using the free version of Posh Boutique 2 that was given away as the free game of the day and I use norton security suite provided by Comcast which is basically Norton 360 without the 2 gigs of online backup all for free and it is not detecting anything in Posh Boutique 2 or 1 (free version of that too).

Norton caught something in Cooking Dash (realarcade's version). I have to redownload it from gamehouse to see if it catches anything in that.

Edit: I redownload Cooking Dash from gamehouse and nothing was detected in it. I even scanned my hard drive with norton and nothing was detected.

Hi, willowwind... if you look on the Support Forum, these virus attachment programs don't reside in GameHouse and the game itself isn't infected. If you do a Search for "virus" or "virus warnings" there, you find several posts with information about this.

I did see that this was supposed to be connected to some file that runs before RealArcade starts. Problem with that theory is that the file named is nowhere on my computer.

This topic is really more appropriate for the support forum. You can find the topic discussed here:
