Quote from: Algorix on August 22, 2025, 08:07:44 AMI'm reading the code, so I'm asking how it is possible that it is detected as a trojan virus by some AV softwares. Apparently there is no internet logic in that code, so am I crazy? I'm very skeptical in general so I'm not going to install this until a solution has been found.

Malwarebytes detects it as a trojan for instance, same for microsoft defender (those are the 2 I scan with usually)

A little update: to this day, Microsoft defender doesn't find malware anymore, while Malwarebytes still has some issues with it.
