So in the middle of finishing a round, the game crashed to the lovely blue swirly screen.

When I closed the game and tried to sign back in, my Norton informed me that the MARVEL PUZZLE QUEST.exe was infected with IDP.Generic Malware and moved it to quarantine.

Seems that Norton doesn't like MPQ.
Fortunately, I was able to take it back out of quarantine and all is well.
That's the first time in my 6 years of playing the game that that happened.
Hopefully it will be that last time.

    Yeah ... No, have never had a previous problem with Norton and have been using it for years.
    This is the first time it has identified something like this in any of my games.

    It was most likely just a glitch related to some Unity bug in the game that caused Norton's AntiTrack to kick in.
