ALC virus - Tom - 12-28-2021
Hi Tyson!
I found an ALC virus in a public scene: tyFlow_scenes_016\Splines\tyFlow_splines_004.max
it creates two objects in a scene with incomprehensible symbols that cannot be deleted,
and then infects scripts in the 3ds Max/startup folder
you can remove this virus from the scene with a free script: ALC_fixup_v1_2.ms
RE: ALC virus - tyFlow - 12-28-2021
None of the scenes report a virus if you download the zip from the official site and open in Max 2022, which has Autodesk security tools installed by default (which can detect ALC).
It might be the case that your own machine is infected, and it infected the scene files as well after you opened them...
