Norton's SONAR protection doesn't like version 2.1.18. It immediately blocks and quarantines the file complaining of suspicious activity. At the moment I can't trust Huggle at all, because version 17 is doing crazy updates and version 18 isn't liked by Norton.

Posted on Oct 16, 2011 by Massive BearCould you tell me if it happens with older versions too? I assume so, according to virustotal.com it's clean

Posted on Oct 23, 2011 by Happy KangarooIt looks as though Norton's SONAR knows there is a link to previous versions, and in my case starting with my original Huggle 2.1.15, which it says is the source file. Then I managed to update all the way to 2.1.17 without any problems, but come 2.1.18 (the third update) it's decided this is suspicious activity. I stopped using 2.1.17 when an incident occurred of it reverting a reverter and blanked several pages in the process.
It looks harmless enough from what SONAR said it was doing to the system: Source File: huggle 2.1.15.exe File Created: huggle 2.1.16.exe File Created: huggle 2.1.17.exe File Created: huggle 2.1.18.exe
System Settings Actions Event: Browser process start (Performed by c:...\huggle 2.1.18.exe, PID:1412) No action taken Event: Process start (Performed by c:...\huggle 2.1.18.exe, PID:5032) No action taken
I am going to break this chain and try again having removed the file from quarantine. Nasnema.

Posted on Oct 27, 2011 by Happy KangarooI couldn't get SONAR to forget anything so I'll have to wait for a new version and ensure that it is a direct download. Maybe I'll wait for version 3.
