Re: Virus ?

As long as you've downloaded it from the Automation website, it should be clean and ignore the message.

Zo lang je de .exe van de website van automation gedownload hebt, zou het goed moeten zijn. Negeer de melding en spelen maar!

I think Automation will use a key checker (Key Logger) to find out what your are pressing and make the game do somthing
But as Wizzy said, if its from this site it should be fine.

Quick developer question: Are there actually any Keypresses in Automation?

Re: Virus ?

This does occassionally happen to me with Norton but mainly only when a new version is out. Norton has a reputation thing, so when a lot of users have it, it's fine, when they don't the heuristics pick it up as being something suspicious. As has been said, if your PC is clean otherwise, and you got it from the proper channels, i.e the main site, it should be fine. Also, as boyercam says, PDM.Keylogger is a generic warning from the Kaspersky Proactive defence thing, just telling you that the process is intercepting keyboard presses.
