Anti-virus programs aren't perfect, and often gives false positives.
Isn't it possible to just ignore the warnings though?

Sounds like you use AVG... false positives all over and it's a pain to circumvent... I recommend switching to avast free anti-virus or Microsoft security essentials.

Definitely Avast, it's the best, plus it's free. I use it and I've never had to obey it's command, and it rarely goes red alert on me. It also has settings for how cautious you want it to be. It's really good

Can't you ask one of your parents to whitelist modloader? I'm assuming they can speak chinese if you're using chinese software.

The modloader i released does not contain malware,
but i cannot vouch for wherever you got the file from.

if you want to manually analyze it:
the installer is a simple .net application, any .net disassembler / decompiler can read it (use ILSpy for example)
modloaders main file (modloader.bin) is a simple dll, only compressed with upx.
To unpack it, simply call: 'upx -d modloader.bin' and the full fill will be easy to analyze / disassemble.

Solution: Boot Slacko Puppy or a Debian based Linux, and never have to worry about viruses again. Ever. Don't worry about having an antivirus. No false positives, or actual malware.

yeah that! I swear they have a antivirus thing and I cant get rid of it, it is in fully chinese. Plus I would get in major trouble cause its "trusted" and my mom will yell at me o.o

Storytime:

I once had a Chinese roommate who decided it was okay to borrow my computer as he left his in China... he downloaded this '360' web browser crap on it... believe me, it's nothing but crap. It's designed to be difficult to remove and always rates itself above others and tries to guarantee that it is the one secure browser while everyone else is compromised. I promise, Google Chrome or Firefox are 1,000,000 times better. Heck, I'd go with IE over 360. It doesn't help that 360 stole the 'e' from IE as a classic Chinese advertising knock off trick.
