 CN> A false positive, I guess...

Jep. Found no reason to think different. Using the latest build, it magically
goes away. Just building a new release so people feel better about installing
;)

Unfortunately, these false positives create a lot of mistrust against
developers and products. This has become a major issue over the years and
causes a lot of extra work for the developers. Back in my old job, every other
release had false positives on some scanner before we made a part of the
release process to check on virustotal before and submit the false positives
to the vendors or suppress them ourselves by minor changes on whetever. For a
hobby project, this is really annoying.

Even more, I have serious doubts about the whole "security" industry and their
products, because I think they are largely useless against actual threads.  

Regards,
Tim
