Symantec Suspicious.Cloud.5 20161210

I believe those are false positives as other 50+ AVs does not detect anything, but Symantec detect is something not quite good.

Have you contacted Jiangmin / Invincea / Zillya on false positives?
Have you heard of Norton / Symantec detects on other RenPy 6.99.11 games?

UPD: it is possible that Symantec detect is based on attached icon file.

Can someone build an RenPy game with this icon and send exe file to VirusTotal?
I need to be absolutely sure that my system is not compromised.


Tried to build exe file with another icon and got this result:

All false positives. It's not the first time that happens to me too. The few times I bothered contacting them, they immediately confirmed "DOH yes they were false positives".
Antivirus are useless nowadays...

Some users reported issues with the Steam version of my own work, with anti-virus programs deleting the executable as it was downloaded. The only recourse is to file false positive claims with the anti-virus provider.
