Hello,
As the client of LiF is new, some antiviruses have not yet flagged it as safe and might perceive it as a malware. We recommend that you temporarily disable your antivirus during the installation process, or add LiF client as an exception, so that it can launch successfully.

[Aori Goldenhanded]

You can encounter a false positive from Kaspersky's Proactive Defense Module (PDM), which sometimes misidentifies applications based on behavior rather than actual threats.

You can bypass this by:
1. Adding the game to Kaspersky’s exclusions (Settings → Threats and Exclusions).
2. Temporarily disabling real-time protection while launching.

Our team is already collecting the necessary info to submit to Kaspersky and prevent this issue in future updates. Thanks for your patience!

This is ridiculous, why is your client getting flagged? Client's don't get flagged simply for being new. As an Indie dev I have never had a single client get flagged by AV and out of the 400+ games I own on Steam, I have never had another games client get flagged. There has to be a reason you client is getting flagged. Being new is not it, this is sus.

If a "PDM" detection occurs, it is essential to contact support. (of kaspersky)
This is a proactive protection alarm, i.e. a behavior-based detection.
this means that based on previous knowledge it could have a virus, so you need to contact kaspersky so they can green flag it as safe.

you have no clue what those warnings means so stop speaking like you do.
this type of warning is litteraly a warning for "new" things.

Software engineer here. NEVER disable the antivirus and NEVER add anything to the exclusion rules.

Enjoy the jester. Been in IT for 28 years, the number of times I've had to disable real-time A/V or add an exclusion to A/V for an executable is exactly zero. Never had to an exclusion for a whole application either. Exclusions are scalpels, you exclude the barest minimum to limit risk exposure.

I advise you not to install when you are going to download the game it will download a Trojan virus my anti-virus to block and report

It should be noted that there appears to be malicious code in the game or its launchers - the screen watches your computer, and it watches your computer screen regardless if yore playing the game or not. As stated by other players, elsewhere, closing the game and its launchers will not stop these malicious spying activities, you will have to fine all elements and force shutdown them in, say, Task Manager or a similar app.

Hello,
our client has no such programmes, I am struggling to understand where this information comes from.

First IT job was help desk in September 1997. I guess, technically, that makes it 27.5 years.

As you can see from my previous comment, you can encounter a false positive from Kaspersky's Proactive Defense Module (PDM), which sometimes misidentifies applications based on behavior rather than actual threats.

Many new programmes are getting flagged by antiviruses because they introduce scripts that an anti-virus cannot yet recognize. It is a common practice for developers to contact antivirus companies and notify them of their novelties so that the antivirus could be "taught" to accept new software. We are currently engaged in this process.
