Hello, I'm having difficulties with my administered Windows 10 laptop's virus 
scanner (F-secure Client Security Premium) and the latest nim release 1.4. My 
previous nim version was 1.2.6.

So all was good with Nim 1.2.6, but after updating I began to get weird 
heuristics false alarms (HEUR/APC) from the scanner when compiling without the 
release flag: "nim c hello.nim". These false alarms won't pop up when I use the 
"nim c -d:release hello.nim" which I find odd.

I know this isn't your problem, **I was just wondering if there 's someone who 
has some experience and under the hood understanding what MIGHT trigger some 
heuristics when compiling without the release flag?** I don't actually even 
know if it's even possible to speculate without seeing the scanner's code.

One problem at the moment is that I cannot even send a sample file to the virus 
scanner company because the scanner is so aggressively deleting the compiled 
example file... (of course I could do this with some other pc, but I don't have 
any windows pc at my possession only linux)

Is my only solution to break free from my workplace admins and start devving 
Nim with my non administered linux pc (I would prefer linux, but the laptop is 
so slow)? :D

File hello.nim contents: 
    
    
    proc sayHello() =
        echo "Hello World!"
    
    when isMainModule:
        sayHello()
    
    
    Run
