installer has some problems with Mcafee anti-virus

Our installer has some custom pages, when we install the machine protected by Mcafee anti-virus, if we get to some custom pages , the it will get delay.......

don't know why?

Possible the AV scanner scans the IntallOptions.dll but also possible it's because you're using solid compression.
Try to reserve the file e.g.
!insertmacro MUI_RESERVEFILE_INSTALLOPTIONS
this might eliminate the noticed delay.

if I added this line in,
!insertmacro MUI_RESERVEFILE_INSTALLOPTIONS
it seems to work.

Thank you Red Wine. You are rockie..

SORRY, I MADE A MISTAKE HERE.
I found some of computers are using Mcafee AV 8.0.0(enterprise). Then the installer will get delay.
If the computer installed Mcafee AV 8.5i(enterprise). Then there is no dalay.
Stange!!!!!!
