Can somebody compile this? my avast antivirus always complains that one of the temporary
PB compiler files is a positive for some kind of threat... here is a capture.
Nothing special in the project, just a timer and couple labels.
Elias,
Your code compiles and runs fine with me. AV scanner: 'Total Defense', Win 7.
Kind regards
Silly avast :-\
Virus scanners.... uuggg!!!!
They have to flag positives so you will think they work better than their competitions products...

In many cases AV scanners are only
slightly less annoying than the 'evil' they are trying to combat ..
Hello Elias
Your code compiles and runs fine with me. AV scanner: 'Kaspersky v14', Win XP Pro.
Fine for me, using Microsoft Security Essentials on Win 7 Ultimate Dell OEM 64-bit.
I've found I can calm most AV programs using the following code at the top of my source, not sure where you would put it in Firefly...
%appmajor = 1
%appminor = 0
%apprevision = 0
%appbuild = &H0000??
'$appversion = "1.0.0.0"
$appname = "PowerBASIC Application"
$appfilename = $appname + ".exe"

I had that happen one time with Avast with a PB dll I wrote. It was a dll that I was distributed with a program.
Contacted Avast support and it was fixed in their virus definitions in about 24 hours.
Am i the only one using avast here? ;D

Hopefully. Avast is going to become synonim of false positive. The title of this thread should be changed to "This produces an avast".
