Hi Richard,
The Panda Help file says it uses something called "Collective Intelligence"
which sounds like some sort of community reporting system. Still waiting
for a response on the Panda forum on if and how I can get more information.
One other thing which may cause the problem is that I use th
I doubt Panda is looking into your code or binary and determining that you have
file functions. I think they just globally decide that any app capable of
deleting files is suspicious. Of course, it should also flag every end user
ever born.

Some AV packages use Bloom filters, which are very efficient but prone
to false positives, and in ways that may bear no relationship with the
intended target pattern so it may not be possible to explain why.

Panda only tells me the application is suspicious, not why so I can't
really answer that. Bu that's a good point - I had assumed it was
something in the engine code that caused it to be flagged
The program opens an sqlite database chosen by the user so no hard coded

Thanks Mike. I have posted to the Panda forum to see if I can find out
just what it is about a Livecode standalone that makes it look "suspicious"
to them.
Seems like RunRev might be interested to know about this, I'm sure they
would prefer programs created by Livecode not be flagged as "suspicio

Just testing the release procedures for my SQLiteAdmin program. On Windows
8, I create a .msi file for installation. It runs fine but the .exe. file
