Anyway is really changing over time. I decided to retry Microsoft Defender 
reaction to Nim > 1.4.4 and I found no issue. I've recompiled a bunch of small 
programs I developed at work on my home laptop with Nim 1.6.6 ad none was 
detected as malicious by MS. So I made them to be scanned also on my working 
laptop (Corporate MS AV may differ), and no issue either. I've checked also on 
VirusTotal and apparently Microsoft does not identify malware anymore also on 
"old" 1.4.8 .exe like nimble / nimgrep. So maybe MS has done something and it's 
more a problem of virus definition / criteria update. Unfortunately on 
VirusTotal there is still some AV detecting issues (Cynet, Ikarus and Google) 
on 1.6.6 binaries... they are just 3 out of 70.
