Forget the warnings or add the opensim folder to the ·exceptions". It isn't
for the source code but for the included libraries: any library that "opens"
a tcp/udp socket is treated as a virus.

I had the same problem three weeks ago, and after doing a simple test
creating a http .NET server it was detected as a virus so... maybe the
"heuristic algorythms" used for the antivirus are too much "heuristic".

Oh... and some PHP extensions and Apache modules are "virus" too, even some
original printer drivers.
