INsetup.exe set off virus scan - Jtrainz - 04-03-2012

Hello all, When I completed the download of the installer from the link here my norton av went off and removed the file, It said something to the effect of Threat type: insight network threat whatever that means. I was wondering if that is a false positive that has happened to a few people or what the deal is.

I've been bouncing around on various shards and I would really like to give this one a go.

Edit:
Ah what the hell I just decided to dl it with my av disabled, I hunted around and found nothing talking about a issue and the oldschool launch era customized idea just sounds too appealing. Either way wouldn't mind hearing from somebody on it doing what it did, could even be a deterrent though I could have went and got a fresh client and customized it I suppose.

sounds like your problem right there, using Norton.... lol

google that error and you will find its a problem with norton just screwing up, in many cases with people downloading legit files....
Smile its an error with their program that they are continually trying to fix.

INSetup.exe is just a 7-zip self-extracting archive. You can also just right-click it and unzip without executing it.

I bet the patcher is what's confusing it. Auto-it has a habit of being recognized as a virus, especially when the code will try to download, move files around or execute things. (patch files and run the launcher)
