Never run an exclusive EMPDLL file through an online "multi-scanner" alone. The genuine file triggers generic "riskware" alerts. The fake one triggers specific Trojan names. If the file asks for administrator privileges after the game launches, delete it immediately. The Performance Myth: Does the Exclusive EMPDLL Improve FPS?
