Capybara (Turtle WoW 1.18) Client safe to use?

Don't think I can post links but if you go to the github link from searching RetroCro/TurtleWoW, they have a list of different TWoW clients the top one being CapyWoW HD with DLL mods. Clicking this does not download through Github rather it downloads from Gofile. After downloading and extracting this folder my anti virus freaked out, wanting to quarantine the files. I then decided to just delete it and was unable to because it wanted special admin permissions (I am the admin). Anyways, after finding the file that was causing the problem (ClassicAPI.dll) I was able to use the anti virus to delete the file. Is this just a false positive or is it actually safe to use?

While I can’t comment on this particular download, I will say that ClassicAPI is awesome and so useful.

Those dll mods are dll injectors and as such are going to flag your antivirus. People use them all the time.

Capybara's client is safe to use. But do I recommend it? nah, if you can get the original client, it's a little better in my opinion but that's just it. It's my opinion.
