Solve : Suspicious.Cloud.2?

Answer»

Hey guys,

I have a lot of experience with computer hardware and software, but on antivirus I'm a newbie. I am playing CALL of Duty Black Ops, and this guy released a mod for it, and it comes with a loader.exe to load the mod. But Norton says there's a virus in it called Suspicious.Cloud.2. The guy who released the mod claims it is unrightfully being labeled as a virus. Is it possible? I thought that if it was indeed unrightfully labeled as a virus, it would be SEEN as a trojan?

ANYWAY, I just need to know if there is a chance that this is indeed an actual virus and what the creator of it could potentially do with it?

Thanks in advance. Here's a screenshot:

What is the point of having antivirus if you ignore its warnings if you don't like them? Or prefer to believe a "mod releaser" who is already the wrong side, if not the law, then of the rules of many gaming sites.

I Googled a discussion of one hack for Call of duty: Black Ops, PEOPLE wondered if Norton was wrongly detecting it, here are some of the comments I found...
