Yes, by getting an antivirus that doesn't suck.

I have  the latest Norton... it deletes the file CRPG-Installer when I download it. Same thing during the launch.

For some reason i assume that the cRPG might gather some info, hopefully "bugs", without your knowledge?

I have to check that with one of my good programmer friends ;)

No, it doesn't gather any info - it's just Norton sucking (big surprise there).

Tried to get someone on my steamlist to download c-rpg, first thing he got when he downloaded the mod from the website, was a virus. Well he didn't get it but his antivirus program said so.

Microsoft Security Essentials (freeware) or Eset NOD32(not freeware) are just fine with crpg/wse launcher.

Well, Notron and other are not OK!!!! So, unless the dude will change the cRPG installer, many people will not play again. I don't care what you guys say. No other game will show VORUUS in the FILE!!!!!!!!!!

Virus alerts will scare away new people. Should cRPG be a game for only those with expert knowledge about computers?

Contacting the antivirus company and reporting the false positive can get them to add your files to a global exception list.
And no longer will everyone get alerts.

Or maybe those "many" (it is actually like 2 people) will get that their antiviruses suck ass and actually get an antivirus which will let them run a harmless app

That relies on people spontaneously getting smarter. Not realistic.
