If you cant run mir2.exe read this! - cannot access the specified device, path, or fi

[lapta]

You cant run it because your anti virus has detected mir as a virus. a msg like this will appear

"cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item"


To fix the problem do this.

Uninstall your anti virus software.

Reboot your PC.

Delete Mir2.exe.

Run auto patcher.


The reason why it shows as a virus


Was researching the error im getting which is a Themida error and stumbled upon some information about Themida that will explain the virus issues some of you are getting.

Basically its a company that makes software to protect software's codes from being read. Its what stops anyone from getting the code inside the .exe or something similar not really sure and its not that important.

So, some clever person decided to package their virus using Themida software so that it couldnt be accessed by anti virus to delete. Themida is the same software that is used to package the mir.exe. So your antivirus thinks that the mir.exe is infact a virus packaged in the themida files trying to stop it self being found.

More information on the actual Themida virus can be found here: http://handlers.sans.org/pbueno/Jansen_ma7.pdf

Basically its a false positive in your Virus scanner. It will be in most scanners if not all. It most likely wont be just affecting Mir and will probably be fixed by what ever company makes your anti virus.

Thanks to Amaranth for that info

If you have AVG virus scanner you should do this to stop it and not have to delete and uninstall things

just go into ur AVG, components > resident shield > manage exceptions

then add the path to ur mir2.exe

[Sakura]

FOR AVG USERS:

Open your AVG main page.
Open Resident Shield
Click the left bottom box "Manage Exceptions"
Click "Add Path" at the top right
Find your mir revenge folder.. Usually My Computer / HDD C: / Program Files / MirRevenge
Click the MirRevenge folder then click OK
Then Click Apply And OK

Then feel free to open up auto patcher again to download the mir.exe.. Or download it from here.

(this is just for the people who dont use PCs often or couldn't find out how to use it so installed their anti virus..)

AVG owns!! don't dis it!

Pasted from my post on HR incase any of you no longer look at that forum
