Kurtle Wrote:The problem is caused by mcafee quarantining a hasckshield file. I believe its EHSCV.DLL. If you restore those files and disable mcafee you are able to run maplestory. It can also be caused by AVG and Avast from what I have seen. Virus programs detect Hackshield as an Artemis trojan and quarantines it automatically, preventing it from running. AhnLab and Nexon are now responsible for fixing these problems. McAfee has confirmed they will not fix their program just so Maplestory can run. If Nexon wants to keep their customers they need to take initiative and fix this.
I have to thank-you so much, it wasn't until just recently someone asked me "Hey can you disable your antivirus?" and I thought that was weird at first but when I thought back to McAfee finding 2 Trojan's with the HS download from the site and another in my HS folder I turned it off and sure enough MS ran like no problem. Also thank-you for the in depth info on what's causing this, although it does piss me off that to play GMS now I need to have my virus protection off at all times and I'm on MS ALOT. >.> Thank-you VERY much I greatly appreciate this.
