Question WPE Pro contains Malware?

Since I am lasered and crashed almost every day, I decided to download WPE Pro so I can be safe playing JJ2 TSF. But, Immediately before the download starts, Kaspersky Internet Security 6 popped-up with a malware warning. My question is: Is WPEPro safe-to-use software and I would like someone to explain me what that malware (Sniffer.Win32.WpePro.a) means.

I need a protection for 1.24. NeoAc supports only 1.23.

For the 100000th time it's not malware. It's a winsock hook that can be used safely without any concern. Reprogram your AV to ignore hacking tools or uninstall it and install AVG which doesn't complain about it.

I've used WPE Pro for years for various things, and Norton has complained about it many times. However, I assure you it's completely safe.
