Anyone else having issues with Norton's Internet Security finding "updaterenginer.exe" to be a threat? About every other week or so (maybe not quite that often, but often enough)when I go to update Fantasy Grounds, I find out that "updaterengine.exe" cannot be found and I find it in the quarantined files in Norton's.

Yes. It is happening to a lot of Norton users.
It re-occurs because every few weeks this file is also getting updated so Norton needs you to whitelist it again.
Annoying but it is what it is.

Thanks Guys, much appreciated. I don't recall what the threat Norton found was exactly, something that started "SONAR.Ha...."

Thanks for the link Nylanfs. I forwarded that over to John so maybe we can get on Norton's whitelist. It creates a bad experience for users and many users probably assume it is just an FG problem.

I ended up changing away from Norton for reasons like this. It may have done great in protecting my computer, but it put its hands in too many places where it did not really need to be.
