Just a note on the Windows side. Norton did not like lilypond.exe at all and Windows didn't either. Lots of blocking the program from writing. I don't know if anything can be done on the LilyPond side. Do people register their programs and certify them or something?
Not familiar with Norton, but Windows Defender often conservatively flags downloads that are newly available online. Once enough users report the file as safe, the file should no longer be automatically blocked presuming there is no actual malware detected.
Microsoft allows developers to submit files for review [1] ahead of time, so they can be classified correctly. However, it might not be worth following this process for unstable or pre-release builds.
