Hi Andrea, I would suggest that this is probably a false positive down to the way your anti-virus software detects threats. Searching for this particular threat gives several similar examples from even very simple Python code.
On my home PC, a scan of the CCP4 installation with Windows Defender doesn't report any issues. Hope that helps, Andy ________________________________ From: CCP4 bulletin board <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> on behalf of Andrea Smith <andrea.sm...@uochb.cas.cz> Sent: 28 August 2024 12:05 To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> Subject: [ccp4bb] malware in ccp4? External Sender: Use caution. Hi, I updated to ccp4-9 a couple of days ago (windows, package manager) and today my antivirus moved one of the ccp4 files to a quarantine. It was: CCP4-9/WinCoot1/lib/python.3.11/site-packages/rdkit/Chem/rdDistGeom.pyd It claims the threat is Win64:Evo-gen [Trj]. Is this an issue or did my antivirus just delete an actual part of a software?
