Client and Server binaries has been updated to fix the "False Positive" issue (this was pushed yesterday, but for some reason did not go live for everybody).

[h2]How did this happen?[/h2]
Microsoft updated Visual Studio 2019, broke something regarding their compiler, and caused every antivirus to freak out (even Microsoft's own). More information can be found here:
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/1046937/windows-defender-reports-a-trojan-1.html

[h2]The Fix[/h2]
Updated to the latest version of Visual Studio 2019, and recompiled the executables. That did the trick. What caused everything to go crazy, was the Windows API for displaying a message box, that's it.

If you are still having issues, make sure to verify your files.
