So apparently someone attempted to use the new Launcher to spread a virus.
Freelancer.exe and the launcher got tracked down by my Norton, cannot even get it back atm, this issue didn't appear anytime before. Mind ya, it's "freelancer.exe" aka not even the Game exe which it detected. Right after the patch, the new one.
Edit 2: This happened after it displayed "Patch Game" following the Launcher update, upon launching after updating the Game then it detected something being off with the FL exe, did this patch touch the FL exe itself or what? I highly doubt this. --- "freelancer.exe" seems not to be an exe file to begin with, so yeah, whatever happened there is suspicious if I may say so.
Edit 3: Digging deeper into it: 1. It isolated the exe due to unusual activity, then the exe changed as it appears and Norton deemed it necessary to remove it all over.
I could restore it but I am not really trusting this anymore, wasn't it possible just to add an old FL Exe back in there?
