Hi,

i just downloaded the newest version of "launch4j" Version 3.6.1
Unfortunately the virus problem seems not to be fixed.
Since our scanner "Symantec" reports an trojan "Trojan.Gen.SMH" in the Zip of launch4j,
as you see in the attachment.

I don't know why the problems comes up again.
If i use an older Version 3.5.x there is no virus detection.

Best Regards

    I switched back to the older version of the c++ compiler which seems to cause this trouble.
    Please try version 3.7 - and let me know if it's OK.

    Best regards,
    Grzegorz

    Problem seems to be back, with Launch4j 3.11 and Symantec 12.1.6
    It puts the exe in Quarantine and qualifies it as "Insight Network Threat"
    Anyway this antivirus is always quarantining prefectly normal programs and letting the real threats pass through -_-
