Can't link in CCP thread any link, says HTML not allowed. Also it would just get suppressed inside all the "spamming" going on the thread and people wont find it. :P

Just make, double, triple sure to check that you apply the "patch" to your actual Eve Online installation folder and don't start from desktop icons etc, but straight from inside the folder that has the patch in it to make absolutely sure you launch correct one. Are you receiving any errors? :P

Killing me should be for free.

After a little digging it looks like it didn't update my eve launcher shortcut on my desktop. I went into my Eve directory and grabbed the launcher shortcut from there and now it is working just fine.

Open your Task Manager in Windows or use "ps -aux | grep Eve" in Linux and Kill all processes like the Eve Launcher and Client. :P

Everyone should make sure they launch the binary file itself straight from the folder and not use shortcuts. After you get the launcher to do the validation, re-create your shortcuts :P

Anyways the launcher shows offline mode (got it to update). so i guess its working for now. just have to figure out how to launch eve from it

You don't want to deal with the hassle of even a false positive detection. The patch there is from CCP itself and it's the same package that comes from patch server itself. Just hang tight then, CCP will fix this eventually through they're own patch server. I just saw need to write this here so people don't need to petition everything. Contributing with my best :P
