unicows malware

Post by mcleaver »

I just ran malwarebytes on one of my machines and it tagged unicows.dll in the Atlantis directory as malware?
What's going on?
(BTW - this forum software is strange. I noticed I haven't asked to be notified of a reply, so went back into edit my message. I was then told I couldn't post another message so soon. Strange...

unicows.dll is a standard library from Microsoft required only on Windows 9x systems:

If you are using Windows 2000 (or higher), you can delete the unicows.dll library from the home folder of Atlantis.

The latest setup of Atlantis Word Processor does not install this library anymore. But if you install the latest version of Atlantis to a Windows 9x system, then run Atlantis, it would suggest to download this library.
