It's most-likely a false positive, unless a virus or something infected the file on your computer.

The Spore ModAPI Launcher Kit injecting code into another program (Spore) is seen by antiviruses as malware-esque behaviour, which makes sense considering that many viruses (and other malware) do the same thing. So, the antivirus thinks that the Launcher Kit is a virus when, in reality, it's just a false-positive.
Hello there! I'm a random guy who sometimes does *slightly* smart stuff. I do a lot of random Spore shenanigans, too.

Feel free to build off my open-source mods, but please don't add them to modpacks; it could cause compatability issues.

i agree. More than likely you have had a windows update which increased your security. Programs will show as risky if they have the ability to manipulate files, which is why you downloaded it in the first place. Most tools like cheat engine or other "trainers" will trigger the same effect.
