Hello,

I installed an old PC-game (Baldur's Gate II - Throne of Bhaal) on my (relatively) new computer two or three months ago and everything worked well until (round about) three weeks ago. Then, when I tried to start the game as usual, my AVG told me there is a virus (Win32:Malware-gen in G:\BGMain.exe|>[Embedded:NIL32.DLL]) and I couldn't start the game anymore. Is this possible? I thought a virus cannot get on a CD-ROM … What can I do?

Thanks for your help and greetings,

Simon
