it called the Silent storm file

Object Name
Trojan.Win32.Agent.nevorr

and Neighbors from hell

I just came to post this (don't have Neighbors From Hell though). Not sure what's up with that, here's hoping it's nothing truly malicious (got rid of it anyway JIC).

I contacted GOG support, havent heard anything back yet

ShogunDarius: False positive?...
I'm pretty sure. Let's wait what support is replying. Meanwhile you can cross-check the files by uploading them to www.virustotal.com. They'll check them with dozens of search engines, so you get a better picture which products raise the same alarm. If other major anti-virus companies don't, it clearly points to a false positive of Kaspersky's heuristics.

However, there's always a chance for your system being actually infected. A scan of these files by virustotal will point in this direction as well, when lots of search engines go red.

If your problem persists, let me know, then I'll re-install the games and scan the files in my vanilla installation to see if it's a general problem with GOG's version or specific to your installation (which would be bad ;-)

GOG support got back to me this morning, in short they think its a false positive, but also said what you said about that website, but since I deleted the files I cant check. The fact someone else got the exact same flag as me from Kaspersky has me thinking FP too.

ShogunDarius: ...
Thanks for the feedback; The fact, that Kaspersky doesn't show any further "infections" since you deleted the files is also a strong indication for a false positive. I think your system is okay and Kaspersky just stumbled upon its own heuristic algorithms. Happens every now and then.
