    I’ve been using Miqobot for over a year, but I’ve never got a virus alarm
    The only vaccine I use is Windows Defender

    Virus → Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml

    I trust Miqobot, but… I’ve never seen this before

    Miqobot does not have any virus in it. It’s a false positive, this can happen time from time. You just need to whitelist it^^

    maybe youve downloaded the new update, which needs to be whitelisted again.

    I made a similar post quite awhile ago. It seems that it is very common and if you Google the name of what they say is a virus you will find it is very common and not a virus. It is just them seeing that Miqo can interact with FFXIV and maybe it uses code that other bots use.

    It is safe and I would recommend doing a search to see yourself. I did and it all shows it is safe. Just a virus protector being extra safe which is a good thing in a way.

    Yes, this always happens with every new version release.
    False Positive is a bug in antivirus, but since we have no affiliation with antivirus vendors and have no access to their source code we can not help them fix it.

    This is why there is a special entry in our FAQ section.

    Even if you did not experience this problem before, it doesn’t mean that you never will. Antiviruses are updated often and each update has a chance to introduce a new false positive bug.
    We highly recommend to report this behavior to your antivirus vendor.

    Thank you, I already searched for it, but I couldn’t find anything in this version, so I thought something was wrong
    I’m enjoying fishing <3
    I’m using a translator, so I’m sorry if it was rude!
