Title: Win32:Kryptik-PFA - Steam
Post by: REDACTED on May 07, 2015, 01:19:02 AM

So I just got 3 detections for Win32:Kryptik-PFA on Steam when it was downloading the latest update of Dota2.

I'm assuming it's a false positive? As now it crashes my steam as it tries to redownload the update and it won't let me whitelist the files.

Pondus is right. Long story short: no need to submit a ticket, this was a faulty detection and has already been removed. Update your virus definition (VPS) and all should be ok.
