McAffee warning All Sky Plate Solver contains virus

Used link in SharpCap to download All Sky Plate Solver and received a warning that All Sky Plate Solver contained a virus. Thought this might be a false positive but then had trouble running SharpCap after installing All Sky Plate Solver and manually pointing to it in setup. Uninstalled it and ran virus scan and found three hits not sure if they were from All Sky Plate Solver install or not. Wondering if others have had this experience.

Hi,

Not something that I've seen in respect of ASPS, but Norton (like Avast) can be on the oversensitive side sometimes.

Did you download from this page? http://www.astrogb.com/astrogb/all_sky_ ... olver.html
