It's rather ironic that you say this isn't an acceptable solution in this era seeing as third party active antivirus has been an unnecessary resource hog for quite some time now. My theory is the anti cheat is seeing your AV as a possible risk. The anticheat scans your active memory for data mining software. The official solution is to get a halfway decent antivirus instead of the garbage you are currently using. Malwarebytes is one that comes to mind.

I agree with your theory, but I've been using the same AV for a time (before I began P99 and during my time playing P99). If the anticheat now recognizes a part of the AV as a threat, how is that the responsibility of the AV development team? Or did I misunderstand that it was a P99 update which began this issue?
I am not a person whose online activities put my pc at a high level of risk. So, I may continue to work with my AV (maybe turning off the participation in their research data mining) and see if P99 will be happy, or maybe I won't. I don't get to play that much anyway.
Thanks for the response.

*Edit* Just for others use - I did get to login and choose server by disabling shields and putting the p99 folder in 'safe sites' or whatever your AV might call it. But, then I kept getting an error message which I will post later this evening once home. The error message was between server select and character screen.
