Can somebody please tell me....

[Ninja Rygar]

What should I do about this? Is it just me?

AutoHotkey compresses it's scripts using a PE packer which is often used to pack viruses. It's basically a false alarm because of this (similar signature).

What HK said. Also, I'm willing to bet Tom scanned the heck out of it before he included it.

When in doubt

The file is packed with UPX which is commonly used for packing viruses. As you will see from the online scan most anti-virus apps don't detect it as a virus.

Tempest,

When you compile you can choose no upx option. This may/may not solve the issue with false positives.

I'm pretty sure Tom already dealt with it.

Maybe even in todays release.
