Hmmm. My ESP scanned at ElricM as with a Virus

Is there a problem there again? I really like the site, and have a huge number of files there.

But if I can't upload an esp there, not good. :(

Anyone else getting this problem?

I recall Bhl reporting this error http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1078334-elric-melnibone-is-partly-down/page__view__findpost__p__15734685 - alas it seems nothing changed from that time...

I know that when I tried to upload my Alienor Hairstyle mod last July (!) I also had that problem :(

Yeah, my browser (Chrome) usually gives me a virus warning on his site.

This is different though. I made a blank world esp, with the land wiped clean and all door and travel markers removed. It uploaded fine to PES and Nexus. But elricm insists there is a virus in the esp.
There is no virus, and it is just in a zip format.

It is sad, as I really like elricm. I will try with each release I do to upload there, but I may not be able to...

I read a post by Admin at Elric somewhere not to long ago that the issues they had with a hacker had been fixed, but that they wre constantly getting renewed attacks. Apparently the latest virus reports were false positives, but they were going to have to step up their security. Maybe they stepped it up too much.

It is without a doubt a false positive. There is no way there is a virus in a esp as it contains no executable code.

I've had the same problem for some time now. Haven't been able to upload ever since they had the virus scare. :(
