Hi :) Yet another advantage of OpenSource. To get Norton to take notice it will probably take tens of thousands of people writing in to grumble. So it would help if quite a few people on this list could grumble as that might be enough to tip the balance whereas for just 1 person to write in sometimes feels like a complete waste of time.
With OpenSource it only takes 1 person to grumble, and then a bit of luck to catch a dev's eye when they aren't inspired to work on something else. Extra grumbles don't make much difference and might even be counter-productive.

I would recommend emailing Norton and AVG and saying lower their threshold. These false positives can come with stable releases as well and they aren't our fault. These programs set these stupid system thresholds to determine if something is malicious and then we get blamed. There are several bug reports on FDO (our bug tracker) related to this over the last few months and all have been closed as INVALID. If enough people email Norton saying "hey we pay for this stuff and yet we get these false positives" maybe they'll do something to make their algorithm a bit smarter.
