Antiviruses often run buggy heuristics to determine whether something is dangerous. It gives many false positives. Windows 11 is 64-bit only and thus doesn't even run DOS software anymore. So it's unlikely that there is a real threat. I checked VirusTotal and rescanned it there. Only 1 out of 88 scanners detected it as "malicious", and since I've never heard of that particular brand of antivirus (Sucuri), I'm not too impressed. Ignore it. Seriously, almost everything in FreeDOS should be "Open Source". It's unlikely that anything crept in without us knowing. _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
