Norton Security Suite - Possible cause of steam start up problems

Just wanted to throw this out on the forums. Norton doesn't seem to like indie Zombie games. I got Lone Survivor and the consolation TWD Steam key and both game's .exe's were flagged and deleted.

Make sure you guys disable Antivirus auto-protect before booting or the exe may mysteriously disappear.

    Yes .... Symantec's Norton just removed "Walking Dead101.exe", because the program "acted in a suspicious way."

    Yup, Norton tried to remove a file from my game too. restoring it from quarantine and excluding it from future scans seemed to do the trick.

    That would explain why the only way I could play the game was to go offline.... Once offline I had no problems playing at all. Makes perfect sense.

    no.. both doesn't help.. going offline and disabling the AV AntiVir doesn't fix the problem (and i have the same as you). There is also no file in the quarantine zone ...
