Cannot Whitelist A False Positive

[MightierPen]

I have an auto hotkey script from a trusted friend that tracks my mouse and reports the mouse location to my music program.
It's not malware but Kaspersky thinks it is.  I've whitelisted it multiple times but Kaspersky doesn't care.  I can't even "block" it, I can only delete it.
Kaspersky is even reaching into my external hardrive backup and telling me I have to delete it.  (I don't remember giving Kaspersky access to my external drives but ok)

Who told Kaspersky this is malware?  I would be very surprised if my friend wrote a virus.  I'm 95% sure this is just a simple tool.
I need to use this, so how can I force Kaspersky to leave it alone?  (Unless you know for sure that this is malware because I'm convinced it's not)
