    so, I was letting FFXIV update do it's thing, and as it's finishing installing the big update, MSE identifies one of the files as a virus. I know all this stuff is P2P so I was wondering if anyone thinks this was a false positive or not, or if anyone with MSE got this error.


    edit: it appears that this is a genuine virus program, and you should *NOT* allow it to proceed. I had DMZ hosting when I was downloading the update (since SE screwed up the IP ports and that's the only way I can get remote connectors to start to pop up with my router) so be aware of this.
