Default I would agree, but....

When I originally installed Project 1999 the dsetup.dll was 59k, now in the latest distribution it is a different size, much larger. Lucky for me I kept a copy of the original install. The original file doesn't give a trojan hit on virustotal but the larger file does. We are also talking about 8 or so different softwares that are saying the bigger file isa trojan, not just McAfee. Virustotal is rarely wrong because of consensus. Virustotal doesn't think the 59k file is a trojan but does think the 2.5mb file is.

The game starts just fine with the smaller .dll, so I copied that to my Everquest directory and am playing it using that one just fine. I still posit that it is possible the current version being distributed has been compromised because of the file size difference and the fact that one hash hits as compromised at virustotal when the other doesn't.

For the record this is a paid version of Avast Internet Security and it was Malwarebytes that hit on the file originally.
