The problem I have had is when programs I compile generate a false virus
detection.. sure on my own computer I can just disable that directory from the
virus scanner but it becomes a problem when I release it to my customers and
their virus scanners quarantine it. I have no idea how to register a
legitimate program as not having a virus. I've had this issue before but
managed to track down the section of code that caused it... after a completely
exhaustive search.
Some tips:
- don't use debug builds.
- sign the binary, even if just selfsigned. Provide as much context to
the OS (icon and the rest in that screen). Minimalistic binaries seem to
be more suspect.
- use a well known installer package, and insist on using installers.
Copied exes are also more suspect.
- unfortunately, some wellknown Delphi libraries like Indy and Zeos
sometimes trigger also.
There is no real failsafe solution. It is all hedging and hoping.
