Missed that, thanks! Guess I only searched for [Wallpaper Engine] and [Kaspersky] earlier to check if it's submitted already.

Surprised it's flagged. But then, the Securelist title is a bit clickbaity. It's still among the top 10 "games" on Steam, and like some comments in the other submission mentioned - bit funny that wallpapers as a vector are back / still a thing.
