Re: [libreoffice-users] False Positive?

I would recommend emailing Norton and AVG and saying lower their 
threshold. These false positives can come with stable releases as well 
and they aren't our fault. These programs set these stupid system 
thresholds to determine if something is malicious and then we get 
blamed. There are several bug reports on FDO (our bug tracker) related 
to this over the last few months and all have been closed as INVALID.

If enough people email Norton saying "hey we pay for this stuff and yet 
we get these false positives" maybe they'll do something to make their 
algorithm a bit smarter.


All the best,
Joel
