symantec scan claimed installer was a security risk

Hi folks. not really a bug or a complaint, unless it is with the core systems here at my university, but the enterprise virus scanner just popped up with this message (with identifying pieces removed).

Scan type:  Scheduled Scan
Event:  Security Risk Found!
Risk: Downloader
File:  C:\Documents and Settings\--snip--\My Documents\downloads\install-debugbar-v5.0.2.exe
Location:  C:\Documents and Settings\--snip--\My Documents\downloads
<snip>
Action taken:  Cleaned by Deletion
Date found: Friday, July 25, 2008  8:44:33 AM

Not a terrible thing since I don't really need the install file anymore. But still it was a bit unnerving/frustrating. I can't imagine that I would have gotten my copy from anywhere but the debugbar site. Hmmmm

Re: symantec scan claimed installer was a security risk

Hi,

Looks like symantec does not like DebugBar. That may be because the installer, nor the dll are signed...

I can validate DebugBar downloaded from the official web site is completely safe :-)
