Hi, Ive just done another full scan of my computer and Kaspersky has informed me that I have a riskware invader.
I want to delete/remove/fix it however Kaspersky doesnt give me that option when I click on ACTIONS. The delete button is grayed out as is the disinfect button, so it doesnt seem to be giving me any option on a course of action.
I dont have any real knowledge of software or any indepth knowledge of computers and although I apprecaite any aswers, please keep them as simple as possible. I find that this kaspersky although good, is designed very badly for unexperienced pc users. Its not user friendly at all. Anyway, its not giving me an option to remove this .
All it says is detected: riskware InvaderRunning process: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\ronso\source sdk base\hl2.exe
I do not want to delete the steam folder, it houses about 40GB of games.
I apprecaite any answers, what is the work around here? Sorry for long message !

Notice that Kaspersky has that "threat" categorized as a Riskware and not a virus. There is a huge difference.
From the Steam website:
"If you're using Internet security, firewall or anti-virus software, make sure they are set to recognize Steam.exe and all instances of HL.exe and HL2.exe as trusted programs. Please consult your security program manuals for instructions."
