The editor adds several malware (trojan virus) that screw up my IE, instead of opening my homepage "Google" i get a "about:blank" window.
Easy to remove with Trojan Killer but why release such a thing on Cheat Happens?, don't you guys check files...my BitDefender did warn me but i thought i could trust files from Cheat Happens

I've used files here for years including this one and my IE has not changed in behavior at all. Additionally you did not post your AV logs and the detection name which is vitally important. Additionally, malware rarely if ever changes the homepage of your browser to the blank page (more than often to a malicious website, but changing it to blank makes no sense from an attacker's point of view). Additionally, not only do we check this file in paticular, all the code for it is written by the staff.

The file is 100% clean, tested by Chris and whatever changed your homepage, it wasn't one of my tools.
BitDefender returned a false positive heuristic message. Please get in contact with BitDefender customer support and report it as a false positive.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your bitterness, I will dispel
I ignore it and run the editor any way, then i open my IE and i don't have Google as my home page any more...just a about:blank window.
I run Trojan Killer to remove the trojan, restart computer and open IE and i can set my home page to Google again and everything works just fine...run Trojan Killer again to check if i have any infected files on my computer but it is clean.
I download and run the Editor again regardless that my Bit Defender warn me, then i start IE and again my IE is screwed up as before...i have done this now 5 times and it is the same every time.
