The version I had before the latest (that was uploaded 38 hours ago?) is automatically killed by avast!
For whatever reason, this wasn't a problem with the barely older version.

I've now used dropbox to host a rar archive of Verve. Has that happened to that, too?
(I'm really, really starting to hate all those stupid virus killers, pfff.)

There is nothing for "clean" a program before uploading it ?

Wonder how long it will be until the Virus Killers all get enough "false positive" reports to finally trust my releases! :roll:
I was doing a little demo the other day and right in the middle of using Verve Avast on that laptop kicked in and stalled.... yay. Such a bullcrap. I'd just take it off, really, but it's easy for me to say, because I haven't used anything besides the windows defender for over 10 years now. And I'm happy! And my machine is healthy, too.

Have you try to compile your code by another user of BlitzMax ?
Same result ?

It can't have a different result, that's not where the problem is at. There's a minute chance that the editor I'm using (BLide) may contribute to the problem, I'm not sure, but I don't think so.

Seems your last 0.99s don't have the Avast problem! 8-)
Some users tell me that and myself has no more this detection problem! ;)

"Seems your last 0.99s don't have the Avast problem!"

Sadly not true for me. Avast won't even let me download it. 99p is the last version I have been able to use.
