Is KRNL (executer) safe?

The game executer from krnl.place supposedly makes antivirus give a false-positive. I know (think) that it's probably safe when downloaded from krnl.place, but I just don't want to disable McAfee real-time scanning to download it, and then add exceptions for the KRNL files.I know it has trojans to inject code into the game, and that these trojans are harmless. But can someone provide proof?Also, if it really is safe, and I have to add exceptions, then what files need to be excepted?Thank you. Continue reading...

What do I do?I even used Revo to delete any left overs and it still says that Continue reading...
