    As stated on the title, my avast antivirus does not let me run no$zoomer 2.3.0.2.

    The weird part is that i have been using the same program for about 6 months or so without having any threat detection from avast. Has anyone have a problem like that? if yes, how did you solve it?

    thanks in advance.

    note: my avast antivirus is version 5.0.545

    So is mine and it doesn't detect the program as a threat. :p

    Perhaps you have a virus in it?
    Try doing a scan of the files or deleting them and getting a fresh copy of it.

    Try this one instead,

    Sometimes, it was the AV faulty.

    No.

    My link had a Malware GEN32 fucker on it...
    Don't know how in THE HELL it got onto that file...
    Please delete it and do a full Boot-Time virus scan immediately I would recommend.

    i'm trying to download your .rar, but my web browser tells me that:

    This webpage is not available.

    The webpage at http://download846.mediafire.com/91bbye0d03cg/0tmrvozm0gm/NO%24GBA+2.6a+%26+Package+files.rar might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.


    i guess is time to test other emulators XD, i really liked no$gba + no$zoomer

    It's obviously not a malware, but it was fairly annoying because it wouldn't let you run it either.

    What you have to do is turn antivirus off while playing... hopefully they get enough of this program as a false virus and fix it.

    Luckily, avast isn't bad with customer service.

    i already filled a form to report that i'm getting a false positive. Hopefully they will solve it, in the meantime i might try ideas or desmume

    It is still working, try again.
    or download it from the link that Tirith has posted, or use DeSmuMe instead.
    No IdeaS.

    That sucks.

    good news. It seems that avast changed their virus definitions. no$zoomer is no longer being detected as malware, probably they got a lot of complaints from their users.
