Hi Developer,

Just downloaded White Russian Episode 1-4 and when unzipping to install my antivirus (Sophos Home (paid version)) stepped in  during the unzip process to block actions from what Sophos thought was a ransomware attack. When I look into my Sophos dashboard history, Sophos has 2 entries as follows:

Ransomware blocked

An application was prevented from encrypting a number of files

C:\Windows\System32\dllhost.exe

and

Ransomware blocked

An application was prevented from encrypting a number of files

IgnoreHide Advanced Options

C:\Windows\explorer.exe

If this was an attack, my computer seems OK, and all I can do at the moment is to believe Sophos on face value. That is why I run an antivirus  after all.

So far I have encountered no encrypted files although I have not examined every one, however it is an experience I can do without.

I have not experienced this before with files from this site. Do you have any ideas? Perhaps the upload is in some way "infected" and can you please have a look at it.

Regards,

Hi :)

That's odd I could only imagine that it is a false report. This is also the only report of this kind so far. I downloaded the file again myself and did not get any warning.

I would suggest ignoring the warning, but if you are not comfortable with it I can point you to a compresssed version of my game that someone made on F95. (The quality is minimally lower but the file size is much smaller. Feel stupid that I can't do this myself. ^^')

-> F95 Link
-> Direct Download Link (Workupload)

Hope it works somehow!
