Didn't know where to put this, but I thought I'd let you know. Report is below. Note that I do *not* get a report on github.../D-Programming-Language/../VisualD-v0.3.37.exe (although apparently the files are the same according to hash) Also, scanning the exe with 36 scanners at VirScan.org shows nothing. -------------------- WARNING: ProxyAV has detected a virus/PUS in this file!

The false alarms were raised after I added file monitoring to find linker dependencies. This uses DLL injection, a technique probably also used by viruses. I have tried to disuise this functionality a bit and the installer now passes most checkers. Try it with beta4: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/visuald/releases/tag/v0.3.38beta4
Even our sketchy web proxy thinks this file is OK =] Note, though; I didn't have issues with .37 on github; only the one linked on DSource. The top search result for 'VisualD' is http://www.dsource.org/projects/visuald That page points to http://www.dsource.org/projects/visuald/browser/downloads/VisualD-v0.3.37.exe?format=raw&FixForIE=.exe That was the only file I had a false report with.
Visual D now built with MS runtime, not the DigitalMars runtime which seems more often falsely flagged. Try https://github.com/dlang/visuald/releases/tag/v0.46.0
