norton says that too but shut i shut it off and nothing has happened to my pc yet. anyways i dont think dennis would upload anything that would hurt our computers

nope,because everything on this website is tested before anyone can download.

you will find it's what you called a false positive.

whats your antivirus...norton?

Yeah i don't like norton, but the last time i had it my other anti-virus said it had a trojan in it, but i thought it might have gotten infected elsewhere.



i don't have norton, right now i have Panda, i used to have AVG

uninstall norton. it's bloatware and takes up way too many resources, and prevents the user from accessing certain services.

and uninstall AVG too, AVG lately has been having massive memory leaks, and I mean massive

use avast

panda? i know nothing about that programe,anyway if you have an option to just ignore the warning about the 3rd person app then do so

if your unsure of any file on your pc get it tested here...http://www.virustotal.com/

lol, i don't have Norton cause it sucks, and AVG was drag so i don't have it anymore, I have Panda

the advice gane is giving you about using avast5 is good advice.

well, thnxs for everyone's help and if nobody else had this problem I'll assume
it was just my own computer and wont mind if this thread ends here.

Use Avast as your protection, then use Malware Bytes as your scanner, then use CCleaner after scanning with Malware Bytes.

I use it. no problems. By the way, if you want 2 play online with this, you need ORIGINAL UI PLUS.

@ Corvette19 thnx i'll try that.
@ BlueGrunt 117 yeah i have it, the Original UI Plus

Everything uploaded to this site cannot harm your computer.

It is a false positive. The program like several other in game utilities uses a keyboard intercept routine that is often used by key-loggers. They use the routine to allow you to activate the utility with a key press while in game because the game has primary focus on the input interface.

@ Cocaine I thought so.
@ Dennis, thnx just wanted to be as sure as possible.
