    This Suite contains a lot of addons (.exe’s) that are needed to enhance possibilities and functionality. Almost all of the addons I wrote myself using Autoit scripting language. Unfortunately, some number of antiviruses will automatically flag such exe’s as not trusted or even infected, and one of the main reasons why is explained here AutoIt and malware. This doesn’t mean that every exe written using Autoit is indeed malware, but some of addons of mine will likely be flagged anyway. So if you have your antivirus flagged this Suite of skins to contains malware/trojans etc. and if you want to use these unique skins you need to do next:
    add to exclusions in antivirus options: path to rainmeter Kotoko Suite folder
   or any similar way so it will not get to quarantine or even be deleted (your antivirus is ultra paranoiac if it will do deleting lol)
! Otherwise DON’T use these skins because they will not work properly without all required addons!
    Also adding to exclusions will fix problems like freezing/low response/stucking with some antiviruses. This may happen to any rainmeter skin
   If you downloaded an installer file from here it should be clean, but I do not guarantee you that it will be the same if you download it elsewhere. Please compare HASH sums with your file (sums are at the bottom)
   If you need proof that addons are not malware I can give it personally.
   !!! If after you installed Kotoko Suite no configuration window popped up then load it manually by activating ConfigurationTool.ini under ‘Configs’. !!! This is crucial!
