Very Minor / Informational: False Positive Malware Detection b.c. of Name Association when lnk file.
Possible footnote for project: (I'm new, but will participate actively in the future)
Helios files have no issues with false + heuristic malware detections, but the name "Control Center" is the name of the annoying fake false=positive producing application that fools PC users into continuing to use it to help their computer. It will show up as Rogue.ControlCenter malware. A simple search will show anyone with basic knowledge of their computer how it is a false +, but I am surprised at the number of people who can read through and fly an A-10C but ask hot to setup their monitor lua config files. ;)
I created a desktop "Control Center" shortcut on Win 7 and did not think that Control Center.lnk would be detected. However...
Malwarebytes Premium Anti-Malware Software identifies the threat based on name, and bc a lnk file, it matches rogue control center (of course, not the actual binaries). Individuals compiling their versions are likely not to suffer any confusion, but older stable releases or users receiving compiled versions could have this problem.
