[header][b]Known Norton AntiVirus Issue with NGS[/b][/header]
[url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/news/current/00IT0/known-norton-antivirus-issue-with-ngs]source[/url]
[i]"We are aware of an issue with Norton AntiVirus that causes a false positive detection between Norton SONAR, and NGS and Black Cipher. This is preventing some players from being able to play MapleStory.[/i]

[i]We are working to resolve the issue soon. For now, there is a workaround that you can use in order to play. Please follow the steps below:[/i]

[i]Go into Norton.[/i]
[i]Click on "Settings" at the top.[/i]
[i]Click on "AntiVirus".[/i]
[i]Under "SONAR Advanced Mode", the "Remove Risks Automatically" option is default set to "High-Certainty Only".[/i]
[i]Click on this to change it to the "Ask Me" option.[/i]
[i]Click "Apply"."[/i]

[b]Note:[/b] This is the only "known case thus far, so there may also be issues with other anti-virus software out there. I would recommend turning off your virus protection for a couple moments, if you're having this issue and using a different type of protection. I can almost guarantee that you won't get a virus with this test if you're not browsing the net or currently downloading anything during the duration of the test. [Only solely running MapleStory as a test.]

Above 2 weeks or so ago. Possibly Norton on your computer may have ran an update. I'm not quite sure, I don't personally use it.

I didn't really do anything though. If anything, you and @TheQueen do this more than I do.
