All, I tried to add this to issue 603 (http://www.pyinstaller.org/ticket/603), but the text below was rejected as spam. Manually entering 10 captcas failed, so here's what I wrote:
I also have problems with my virus scanner (Sophos for PC), which detects support/loader/Windows-32bit/run.exe as virus/malware. When I install my frozen app on other's computer, I also see various virus warnings. Likewise, simply downloading my app in Google Chrome produces a warning (this may be a dangerous program -- keep it?). I did some looking at the commit history on github. On my PC, Sophos is happy until rev b793f5b362295fed9b3374aceaaccbb15c8c2229. The previous recompile was at 17d5baa0e6916262623521b835403bf89db60a18, less than 20 commits away; of those, only a few have changes to the bootloader source. If I compiled each of these source changes and tested, would someone be able and willing to try to work around the change that triggers the virus warnings? -- Bryan A.
