Description

As described in [this dnscrypt-proxy discussion thread](https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy/discussions/1699), Kaspersky Security Cloud keeps flagging dnscrypt-proxy.exe and trying to disconnect it. It gives me the following message:

> Cannot guarantee authenticity of the domain to which an encrypted connection is being established
> Event: SSL connection with invalid certificate detected
> Application: dnscrypt-proxy.exe
> URL: rdns.faelix.net
> Reason: This certificate or one of the certificates in the certificate chain is not up to date.

If I try to ignore it, it pops up back up, sometimes immediately and sometimes after a few minutes. The only other option given to me is "Disconnect" which I'd rather not do, since I'm pretty sure that would stop dnscrypt-proxy from working properly.

In that discussion thread, they confirmed it was harmless, but I couldn't figure out how to make it stop happening (and since I use SimpleDnsCrypt on basically default settings, I didn't understand how to do it otherwise. I see several faelix servers in the list of available resolvers, but I don't know how to edit or remove resolvers from this list. (All the resolvers in the list are unselected, and to be honest I'm not sure what selecting one would change. I find the SimpleDnsCrypt documentation confusing and not particularly detailed, at least when it comes to what configurations affect what.)
