I have just tried to download the client and my security software are given me warnings about the download. It reports a Trojan virus trying to get on my computer which is attached to your client. Sorry, but I will not be joining the server and I think players need to know about this!

The reported virus is a Trojan.Gen.8!cloud

What the heck is a "false positive" and just stating that you are aware of it does not fill me with confidence?

It means that your security software is returning a POSITIVE for Uthgard but it's FALSE. So the issue is with your checker and not with Uthgard. Likely cause is due to Uth using Injection...

It means that it is being flagged by antivirus but is safe. Basically because we are modifying the client and changing files it is being flagged by antivirus, but these changes are necessary to launch the client for us.

Short answer:

Get better anti-virus software or uninstall it and don't download or click on shady ******.

" I wont be joining the server..." lol way to be hyper critical, condescending and and show off your lack of knowledge all in one sentence.
