The famous issue of AVs False Positiv

[salutcava]

Hi to All.
Some years ago with avira, and today with Avast i have false positiv alerts about .exe compiled with PureBasic.
I think PureBasic got no problems, but i got some questions about this famous problem which people already talked about on this forum.

Would this append too if i compile a new code with MS Visual C (express or not express version) ? :) :) :)
Actually it should regarding to what i've read on this forum about False positivs. But cant find people talking about this case on internet.But i ask, i can't check myself. (low disk space free)

My second question is :

Since some people get this issue and some doesnt, is it possible that Purebasic got no problem and Avast does correctly its job, and the OS is really infected by something not related to purebasic ?

Thx for your answers if there are.
In any case i'll never regret to have buy PB, and you should do same if you didnt already :)
Have nice day to All.

Thanks for answering Fred.
If even official IDE are involved in this issue... let spam AV's editors with false positiv as suggested in the link :p
Something i can't understand is, why they don't use the same way to validate a false positiv and the way the AV works...
I just hope they dont test each binary one by one....
Heuristic is a good concept but fails experimentaly, that's sad the only good way to detect viruses simply doesnt work at all.
See you all !
