Anyone seen this?

I have an older version, and I use NOD32, but I've never had any issues with Romlister.
What ver are you on?

I trust Norton about as far as I can throw my car... Did you run it past any other scans or just the one?
Grab the exe file and run it past https://www.virustotal.com/ (https://www.virustotal.com/) - that tends to be pretty reliable.

romlister_029
Just installed the new norton a few weeks ago, and had not run romlister since then. I had no issues with the old version of norton seeing it as a virus. Weird. Probably chalk it up to norton, just wanted to share the info...

Probably a False Positive -- figure Romlister does some things that might lead AV software into thinking it is malicious due to the way it works.

As the author of romlister, I can assure you I am not attempting to do anything malicious with your machine. If there is a virus in there it would have to be some kind of injection-during-compile attack on visual studio. (that's actually a pretty neat trick now that I think about it)
Anyway, I publish the source code on the romlister website too- if you really want to make sure you're virus free you can always build your own.
edit:
I pushed release 29 onto jotti's malware scan site. Someone had done it before me, so here's the permalink with the results:

I don't know what "PUA.Win32.Packer.Armadillo-59" but since clam is the only one finding anything, I'm guessing it's a falsey.
