    I attempted to download the MGtools using your link (http://forums.majorgeeks.com/chaslang/files/MGtools.exe), but it was blocked by my Kaspersky Anti-Virus. Kaspersky claims it contains the Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Agent. I noticed another thread on here posted by another user (which is currently closed) complaining of the very same thing using ZoneAlarm. Could Kaspersky and ZoneAlarm BOTH be incorrect on this? Are you sure you don't have a virus in that download??? Please confirm. Thanks.

    Kaspersky is incorrect too. The link is fine and the download is not infected. Like I have said to other people, we could just as easily declare the Kaspersky installer files infected due to the nature of what they can do but we are smart enough to know that Kaspersky is a valid program. ;)

    I have reported the false detection issue to Kaspersky. Hopefully they fix their problem soon.
