Guys,

I have Malwarebytes anti-malware software installed on my system...
Every time I start RG I get a warning that access to a malicious IP has been blocked (IP: 213.131.252.251).

index.php?t=getfile&id=11696&private=0

What is this IP and why does RG keep trying to communicate with it?

~Dave

Thats definitely not a crimson renguard server. I'd find out what other applications you have running tbh

Guys, my system is clean...

This is sourcing from game.exe (RG) trying to communicate with this IP.

Yeah, then the Malware is simply in that EXE, along with several other EXEs on your system.

You should scan your entire system with your installed antivirus, as well as Windows Defender. If you do not have an antivirus installed, AVG antivirus has a free edition.

Ok, we'll make this clear:

"We don't think that is the case." Please post SS of scan results to prove your point.

Renguard uses some protection measures to protect itself from reverse engineering that some viruses also use.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I'll bet this is a repeat of the issue with Norton. Some virus used SVKP.sys to runtime-pack itself, and the virus connected to that IP, so MalwareBytes just assumes anything with SVKP is that virus, and blocks the connection "attempt" (As RG will NOT connect to that IP).

Ok - just add game.exe to your safe list.

All of those are "Heuristic" (guess-work) or "Suspect" (looks like) results. I'll tell you why: some git made a virus that used SVKP(.sys) to protect itself, and some (very) lazy anti-virus makers added anything using SVKP(.sys) to the blacklist.

The file is safe.
