    antivirus massage-
    we did not find enough evidence to identify the file as malware.
    however you should still use extreme caution when accessing it
    File: c:\program files.....\applicationname.exe
    Reason: The file prevalence /reputation is low

      You can add the program to your antivirus' Ignore/Exclude List

          Unfortunately, that is one disadvantage of antiviruses.

          This is called "auto-sandboxing": Your application is not famous, so the antivirus checks it a lot to make sure it is not a virus.

          Your options are:

          Get your users to add the program to the ignore/exclude list

          Digitally sign your program http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3128205/how-can-i-digitally-sign-an-executable )

          Make your program famous (this could take a long time)

          Disable the antivirus (not recommended)

          See https://blog.avast.com/2012/03/20/autosandbox-why-are-you-annoying-me/
