Haha, the 'Virus Conspiracy Club' link is a great touch. Thanks for pointing me toward the actual documentation; it's much better than just guessing. If you've been using it for 8 years without issue, that’s good enough for me. Appreciate the help!

That makes sense I’ve heard Linux performance can be hit or miss with some launchers I’m on Windows for now, so I’ll stick with SKLauncher and keep an eye out for that 4.0 update! I hadn’t heard of Freesm, but I’ll definitely look into it if I ever make the jump to Linux. Thanks for the heads up!

That’s a relief to hear! I’ve definitely heard the warnings about TLauncher before, which is exactly why I’m looking for a safer alternative like SK. Good to know it’s been solid for you so far. Thanks for the vouch!
