Turn off your anti-virus for ten minutes or so.
The programme is protected to prevent hacking and it
runs in a virtual machine.  It also prevents anyone running
another copy when the trial expires.

Great programme for programmers.

Hope this helps.

Also, all the anti-virus programmes I know have an option
to add files to an exception list so that you won't get
alerts for them.

Now that I'm awake (above written around 3am) I remember that
Avast wouldn't even let me compile this programme so I turned
it off.  When it came on it send it to their labs to investigate
possible virus or whatever but came back later with a clean
bill of health.

[Normy2000]

Taking control of a screen to simulate eyes or taking control of a mouse to simulate a hand placing some bets is often seen as a virus action.
That's why i install my bots manually, to be sure that all actions the bot have to do will be allowed.

what normy said

was going to say something but kept quiet

these days be very careful

phishing software or remote desktop control can be easily done thru a downloaded program

can you trust Ross? who knows

[Normy2000]

True,

I dont know Ross neither his program, so be carefull.

I had my PC destroyed by a ransonware virus last month!
You would not beleive how much it can hurt!!!

Cheers

Ross has complained saying there is no virus etc. So I uploaded the file to link:s://:.virustotal.com/ to check and the scan and a few scanning engines had positive results for a virus:

Bkav   W32.HfsAutoB.9D4A   20161027
ESET-NOD32   a variant of Win32/Packed.Themida suspicious   20161028
Qihoo-360   HEUR/QVM19.1.0000.Malware.Gen   20161028

It does not mean there is 100% a virus. I'm sorry Ross but the results are what they are. And with the internet how it is, you cant expect people to trust a file from someone they dont know.

[Ross]

OK people....

Do I have to justify myself against these uninformed allegations/insinuations?

Well, I may as well....

I have been programming with LiveCode and posting there for a while

[url] link:://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=25819[url]

I still have some programmes at VLS.  The earliest was posted on
September 2008.  I used the name "bjb007".  Yes, silly and
childish but I was young and inexperienced then - only 71 odd.

Why would I want to take control of someone's computer?
There's not "bot" used in any of my programmes - I'm not clever
enough.

Anyway why should I care? This programme is the best chance
you'll ever have (apart from some of my other programmes) to
make some regular and easy dosh playing on-line roulette.
Your loss not mine.

I don't know what Themida is but believe I've seen it mentioned in relation
to WinLicense, the programme I use to protect my software.

As I said, Avast Antivirus didn't like it and reported to their experts
who advised that it was harmless.

I'll get support at Oreans to comment on this.

Update: search Google for Themida Steve.

No, but anyone would need to be stupid to open an exe from someone they dont know. Dont take it so personally Ross. Welcome to the Internet. People of course want to protect themselves.

Thanks for welcoming me to the Internet.

It got me thinking back to the days of the 300bps modem.

Before graphics, MS-DOS and, well, the Internet.

Before you could take a file from one computer and
expect it to run on yours without using a utility to
convert it to whatever file format  the maker of your
computer had set up.

Big thanks to IBM for making it necessary for all the
other computer manufacturers to make their file
format the same as theirs.  "IBM compatible" was
the equivalent in those days of "Intel Inside".

Daisy-wheel printers (just a tarted-up typewriter),
dot-matrix printers, thermal printers, no hard drive
and a long wait for your five-and-a-quarter inch
floppy drive to spin up.  (These disks didn't have
a very great capacity - much less that the 1.44MB
of the later 3 1/2 disks).

As to the price of these things - well, the first time
I came across a hard-drive (then called a Winchester
after the company which made them) I think the
capacity was 2 or 3 GB and the price in England
was 2 or 3 thousand pounds.

Big difference now when it's cheaper to dump
your old laser printer and buy a new one than
it is to buy new toner cartridges.

Price of software - hundreds.  I paid 800 pounds
for a slightly-used copy of FoxPro2 and felt I'd
got a bargain.

As far as computers go I don't miss "the good old
days"
