Having an issue with the auto-update on steam. It keeps trying to download a patch (1.7mb)

 

Then 5 seconds later anti virus software is removing the patch update as its being flagged as a virus.

 

C:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\downloading\251810\leadwerks.exe has been removed.

 

Threat name: Suspicious.Cloud.9.B

 

Advanced details says risk is high, code within leadwerks.exe has been flagged as suspicious.cloud.9.b

 

 

Is this false positive? or could there be something off in one of the new patch files?

Are you using Norton Anti-virus? Because someone just posted the same thing on the steam forum: http://steamcommunity.com/app/251810/discussions/0/451851477879282619/

 

I would say its a false positive as my Malwarebytes has no issues with Leadwerks.
