One of my own programs, as well as shortcuts to it, quarantined

[drool]

This is source written by someone I know, and I modified it and recompiled it.  I've been using it for 2+ years.

Why the sudden quarantine?

If I understand you correctly, you just want me to ask the same question in the other forum.

I just did that.

As to restoring my files, I did that immediately after it happened.

I have moved your topic to the False Positive forum @drool so that one of the Research Engineers can review it and is warranted remove the detection.

Thank you
