PC Troubleshooting: Playing with Avast Virus Protection

[9r2e5i3k]

If you want to play MTA 0.5 with avast! 4.8 installed, you must add the MTAClient.exe file to the Ignore list.
  1. Right click on the (A) icon on the systray (next to the clock). Choose Access Protection Control (the first from the top)
  2. Click on More Details >>, then on Standard protection
  3. Click on Customize (Next to the slider)
  4. Go to the Advanced tab (the last one)
  5. Add *\MTAClient.exe to the list.
  6. OK, then OK.
  7. Launch MTA 0.5

Note: the options were re-translated, so they might be called something else in the english version.

Thanks Grzesiek I will post it on site also... But I had to use the whole address to the client file...

[9r2e5i3k]

i used:

Code: [Select]

*\MTAClient.exe
So it will work for the file wherever it will be on the HDD.

When i try to download MTAClient mine avast stopi it and claims that is virus. Will that info helps. Do i need to put MTAClient to ignore list before download it??

[9r2e5i3k]

Try to turn off avast, DL the MTA client and turn it on again...

[Dexter]

i try that but if i turn it off and DL it won't start to download. ok it do download but it happend like less than 1 sec, and nothing come. This is great i can only play VC:MP. I can't play SAMP, MTA VC or MTA SA

Thanks for the tip Grzesiek.

It will be handy for avast users that is having problem with mta:vc client 

[Daxx]

It doesnt let me launch MTAClient, even I have *\MTAClient.exe in the list  I really wanna try MTA:VC.  :help:

[9r2e5i3k]

1. Do you have avast! or some other Anti-Virus installed?

2. Try adding the full path ("C:\Program Files\Multi Theft Auto\MTAClient.exe"). The " " signs should be used since the path contains spaces.

Why don't you go to where you download it, turn off the virus program then download, because Trojan Vundo (I think that's what it's called) is just a modifier. Norton killed the MTA installation but i turned off auto protect, then installed it. After that turned it back on and it let's me play MTA

It is something about the All Seeing Eye(Yahoo). I think it stopped showing MTA:VC servers. If you want to see servers look at Game-Monitor website.
