Some people obviously have a problem with their Anti-Virus claiming that the Giana’s Return executable is having a virus. The exe changes the screen resolution and checks for connected devices such as joypads or joysticks. This might be seen as critical action and makes the one or other Antivirus moan. The majority of Antivirus-Solutions acts correct and does not find anything.
