Hello. We've released a new version of our software and get false positive status, given by your antivirus again. We ask you to fix this. File Hash: e1d57ec5b3ffa396cf6c8de0949a6a6208a4a317835ffd7867718bdac26a077a

Current VirustTotal Verdict: 6/68
Description: Your antivirus thinks that our software VK Paranoid Tools (https://vkpt.info) is malicious because it is obfuscated by ConfuserEx. Fix it, please.

Why do we have to do this every time because of your antivirus?!?!
