When downloading Kane & Lynch 2 Demo, NOD32 detected a "possibly unknown NewHeur_PE.exe" virus in the file temporary file "kl2.exe.temp".

I wonder if it is a false alarm.

I've never had a problem and have used it quite a bit. The biggest problem is how slow it is. Especially if you've got a ton of files. Bypassing the whole encryption/decryption and tossing the folder onto a separate partition does seem like the method to go with though.

playing the K&L2 multiplayer made me so paranoid.

I'm now ranked as a "scammer" because I broke away from my team when the cops turned up, sat back, collected what money I could find and ran for the van. :lol

As for the single player, the demo is pretty short but the visual style was interesting and I kinda liked it. The streets have a lot more detail so you really (sorta) get that HEAT shoot-out vibe now.

Look forward to checking out K&L 2 when I get back to my main PC. I quite like the original even if it was rather derivative. Hopefully the PC port doesn't have as many issues this time around.

I thought this was supposed to be intentional. Woah.

Steam keeps going offline for me. It's been like this for the past week or so ever since Alien Swarm came out.

I have a retail copy of HL2 I got when it first came out years ago. It's registered to my old Steam account that I forgot I had and don't recall any of the log-ins. Is there any way to migrate that over to my current Steam account?

Doesn't sound good. You don't even know the email account that it was attached to?

I thought it was pretty good. It's nowhere on the level of Professor Layton, but it's definitely on the right track.

I would guess this week but not sure. Usually when the preorder goes up on the registry it goes up fairly quick on Steam.

I might double dip if Reloaded has all the DLC content because I really prefer to play that franchise on the PC.

It's a shame about how they had to scale things back with the game. I remember reading the mega-big preview in Gameinformer years ago and reading about all of these super cool gameplay bits that they were planning.

Yea, it has. Although I will say that the beta seems to be running better for me than the non beta version.
