There is no virus. Your AV program is giving you a false warning.

The is warning is most likely caused by the way the trainer works: it is designed to intercept and edit code that is in-use by the game.

Well actually there is no real virus...

But let me explain you:-

Trainers generally come with harmless keyloggers that map the keys pressed when ingame. This helps in activating trainer options.

And keyloggers are normally traced as Trojan.Agent nowadays...So don't panic - freely add the Trainer to the Scanner's white list ----> It wan't harm you by anyways...This is in CH's TOS.

And this it to AdmiralThrawn's Reply,

Well 15 scanners have reported it, so its not a false alarm, the trainer must have a coded keylogger or look-a-like bytes to that of a virus - be it safe for a user.

If I get a moderator warning:-

1) I am not telling the trainer has a virus, I am just explaining the behaviour of a Trainer's coding which is traced as a virus, but there is nothing harmful inside it.

2) If the submitted trainer is a standard trainer, I hold no faults because I have not downloaded it - I am explaing through standard conditions.
