Good Morning. I downloaded this mod and i scanned it with VirusTotal for safety, and it detected a trojan. I don't know what to do with this mod. Should i ignore it and use it anyway?

It's no longer marked as malicious by virustotal.

After selecting an option to scan the file again it was no longer detected as a trojan.

VirusTotal is useless.

Its likely considered a "virus" as it transforms java bytecode at runtime triggering some heuristics in some antimalware software, but i will verify it myself.

Okay.

I confirmed it does in fact show as a false positive so everything is fine.

Oh my god that's hilarious, though as you said it's not surprising with the transformation going on that it was a false positive
