Just a heads up that there was a Trojan in the Torrent that installed itself in my Discord folder and the strangest part is that is made through my scans and everything only to be picked up by the firewall. Anyways, can't wait to try out Warhammer.

Hi there.
It's been 7 years, we're still not distributing trojans, and there's a couple hundred thousand people that could attest to that. You have a paranoid antivirus that's flagging the launcher because it doesn't know any better. If you contact your vendor and provide them the file they can determine it's safe.

The antivirus could be correct if he has a virus in his pc that is infecting downloaded files.
