Regarding ��Trojan" Virus Notice

Date : 5/22/2007
inquiry : 282

Hello, this is Silkroad Online.

After today's weekly server inspection, we have received a report that some users found a ��Trojan�� virus from their computer.

Our Silkroad Online machines are everyday proceeding inspection, and after receiving a report regarding ��Trojan" virus we again conducted an inspection, as a result, there is no problem.

We conjectured that the infection can be progressed by using bot program update or visiting a scientific illegal site.

For secure game play, please restrict yourself from using the illegal/bot program, and run an anti-virus program at least once a week.

Also after removing the virus, please change the password for your secure game play.

Second annoument

Regarding "Trojan" Virus

Date : 5/23/2007
inquiry : 767

Hello. This is Silkroad Online.

When our users download the newest update on May 23rd (Silkroad Standard Time) for the anti-virus programs they use, the error of the anti-virus programs that detected Silkroad file with a virus will be fixed.

We have confirmed the modification with Kaspersky after update. For users that use other anti-virus programs, please try downloading the newest update for the anti-virus program, and if the error is still not fixed, then please wait for future updates.

This issue was an error of the anti-virus program itself, thus we ask for our users understanding for the delay in grasping a hold of the cause for this issue. Please keep in mind that there was no virus in the first place.

Those who can't run the game normally, or those receiving an error message such as [Error code 2] due to the wrong operation of anti-virus programs, normal processing of the game will be possible when the game is newly installed after the uninstallation of the current game.

For the security of our users, Silkroad Online is processing virus examination every day. Issues like this mainly arise from the malfunctioning of anti-virus programs and through the use of illegal programs, so please feel safe in enjoying our game.

There was a retard posting here about SRO coming to an end, lol. He started making up trojans just for fun, and Joymax responded lol.

JM pwned xD

That guy that supposedly found it and posted it on here, I noticed that there were like 15 - 20 different virus apps, and only 1 said anything about a virus. Also noted that I had never heard of that virus app. >.> Kinda odd, don't you think? xD

RuYi · Post by **RuYi** » Tue May 22, 2007 1:34 pm

I just started up SRO and my ZoneAlarms found that Trojan thing.
I don't use any illegal programs and I don't visit 'scientific illegal sites' either. Unless SRF and Youtube belong to that category.
I'm getting closer and closer to the Quitting SRO department again.

You guys act like SRO is the only one that monitors your gameplay and installs stuff like that

finally, I am into the game. What I did is:

1 Uninstall the game [Not re-install].
2 Delete all files that still are into the Silkroad folder in the program files.
3 Install the game
4 wait for the update
5 No trojan anymore
6 play happy.

+1, the amount of people joining and the amount of people quitting are 1:4. These inquiries are really stupid and it should be joymax's fault and no one else, they keep coming up with new servers and cant even maintain the original ones.

Problem solved. I deleted my own sro_client.exe and then I downloaded a clean sro_client.exe. I uploaded the clean exe-file if someone needs it.

1. Open the link.
2. Push FREE
3. Then u see time that u have to wait.
4. After the time is up verification code appears. Put it into the box and push [Download the file]
