I don't think we are shipping malware and I am not aware of anything
that we could do without further information.

We could maybe add some info in the Windows-installer which states that certain Virus-software (namely Symantec) is known to fire false positives?

Why not try contacting them first?

Not to be accused seems to be the better solution than pleading for
innocence after being impeached.

Off course, contact them also (thanks Juergen), and I think some time ago a user also did.

But this is not the first time (and if I'm right not the only Windowz virus checker) that reports QGIS as trojan or virus. And I have seen more Windows installers stating:
"Please disable your virus checkers before installation of xyz"
So I think Windows users have seen this before...


(and yes, we should not blame Symantec by naming them in that message, that was just a personal agony I still have with Symantac from historical days.... sorry for that)

Richard
