Re: parameter type

Re: Virus in build 878

I fear that this is becoming a wild goose chase. I believe it is time to stop and rethink what problem it is that we are trying to solve. The basic problem is that there are unreliable anti-virus products in existence. I have been investigating and came across the site: https://www.av-comparatives.o...
