LiveCode Forums.

Hi all

Before writing a bug report, and avoiding false-positive, here is a snapshot of a warning of my virus detection progrqam hinting at a Virus in LiveCode on Windows 11:

In my case, the file path is:
"C:\Program Files\RunRev\LiveCode 10.0\Runtime\Windows\x86-32\Externals"

Anybody had similar warnings? In my case, the file was automatically deleted by the detection program which is "G DATA".
Thanks for feedback, if you have any ))). Roland

I've seen false positives from antivirus programs with many packages. Many use Bloom filters for compactly storing their comparison data, a highly efficient structure where the trade-off is a tendency toward false positives.

If you write the tech support for the antivirus vendor they likely have a way you can send them the flagged program (in this case LC), and if it checks clean they may whitelist it in their next data update.

Oh, thank you very much, Richard
