BitDefender finds Trojan.Small.AN in my install

Hi,

Everytime I build an install of my application, BitDefender 7.2 finds a virus in it: Trojan.Small.AN

I scanned my computer and this virus is not found.

I also removed all the installation files from the NSIS script (leaving only NSIS commands) and rebuilded the install, and the virus is still found.

Is that a fake virus or something?

How can I work around this to avoid my customers start to yell and lose trust?

I'm using the last version of NSIS (v2) and the last BitDefender virus definitions.

Ok I tried to compile the NSIS examples and each generated executable is reported as virused as well.

So I guess it is related to NSIS files.

Are you a developer who uses NSIS to distribute your application? Are you a Winamp plug-in developer who wants to use NSIS to distribute your plug-in? Have suggestions for other people like you? This is the place.

Come on guys, NSIS is been here since, almost Winamp.
That's quite long time.

Trust... 📻 🙂
