Thanks for this, Mindstormer. Avast was pissing me off. >_> I accidentally moved Maplestory.exe to the chest, and now it doesn't even have the mushroom logo anymore. :/ Great, I have to re download it.
Stol'd my solution. Nah, just kidding. I'm sure you figured / would have figured it out for yourself.

Just go to Chest, choose Maplestory.exe and "restore". It will go back to its folder ;)
