    For anyone looking @amanda 's posts, if the Windows Loader.exe has a SHA-256 of 2F2ABA1E074F5F4BAA08B524875461889F8F04D4FFC43972AC212E286022AB94
    don't alarm or panic. It's ok.
    Any alert from you A/V program is a FALSE POSITIVE, research what it is.

    Could be an infected system altogether... maybe?

    Edit: Scratch that, just re-downloaded, tried virustotal - 36 positives. It's a false-positive.
