About this Trojan Detected: Artemis!6CD5FD877C5F (Trojan), Artemis!6CD5FD877C5F (Trojan) This is what pops up everytime I press "allow" to start maple, it kinda scares me. Everytime I try to send the file to McAfee (yes, I have McAfee) it says it's too big. Does anyone know what this is? Does anyone know what I should do to delete/stop this? Thanks ~I put this in general because it's related to ms, and things in the general thread tend to get more hits~

This is a FALSE POSITIVE that only McAfee picks up. It's identifying a component file of HackShield falsely as a trojan. This is well known and it's unknown why McAfee hasn't fixed it yet. In other words, don't worry about it. If you want to "fix" it, open McAfee and add the file to McAfee's "exceptions list", (or whatever it is McAfee calls it- all AV programs have something like that to allow you to ignore programs you know are OK). After you do that you should be able to run MapleStory without McAfee complaining. Whatever you do, don't delete anything or move anything to a "quarantine" because then HackShield (and thus MapleStory) will no longer work.
