Weird. Usually the false positives come from user32.dll, not millennium.exe. Does user32.dll also get flagged?

mrugtangy commented 3 weeks ago

Nope. Only millennium.exe.

Here's a Virustotal scan that also gives the same result. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/e896cba32a6f877fc8b999009363607416b44eac0eb9f0bcb233be3eeb6f8d07

Very weird considering we've never had issues with that, and the code for millennium.exe hasnt' been changed in months. I'm going to remove it from the next update as its not essential. I'll put it back once its fixed!
