⚠️        Security and Antivirus Detections Note
================================================
Why do some antiviruses report this program?
Hosts File Editor+ is a tool designed to edit system network configurations (hosts file). Due to the nature of its work — accessing system files to block unwanted websites or parental controls — some antivirus scanners (like those on VirusTotal) may generate so-called "False Positives".
Important facts:
Nature of the tool: Software that changes the hosts file often behaves similarly to some protection mechanisms, which paranoid scanners automatically mark as suspicious.
Digital signature: The program is digitally signed by the author to guarantee the integrity of the code (that the file has not been modified by third parties).
Openness: The program does not contain any malicious code, does not collect your data and serves only for the purposes specified in the description.
If your antivirus blocks the launch, it is recommended to add the program to the list of exceptions (Exclusions) so that it can freely make changes to the network settings that you approve.
