Server infected or hacked??

Post by Topsecret »

Hi team,

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. Suddenly 45 mins or so ago my windows defender popped up a couple of messages saying trojan warning and quarantined a couple of files, as soo as that happened my game closed.

After that I tried running the game multiple times but was unable to do so, it said A3client.exe not found.

I removed everything and reinstalled it all again, However, the problem continued. As the launcher was updating and installing everything the same warnings came back up (Regarding windows defender finding trojan). This time there was another one which was "HackTool:Win32/Keygen" along with the 2 trojan errors.

For the sake of installing game I allowed them and then after it all updated and I logged in the game it was empty. All afk shops were offline and I couldnt find anyone online.

I recieved 3 notifications from Firewall
1. HackTool:Win32/Keygen
2. Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml
3. Trojan:Win32/Leonem!rfn

For now I've uninstalled it all and removed everything. Looking for an update

Thanks

The A3 India game client includes a built-in anti-cheat system designed to detect hackers and cheaters. Sometimes, Windows Defender or other antivirus programs may mistakenly flag this system as a virus or trojan. This is a false positive, and you can safely ignore it by adding the game to your antivirus exceptions list.
