I've recently had some of my D DLLs being falsely identified as variants of a MiniDuke virus. But apparently I'm not the only one that ran into this:

http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=43027

Unfortunately the source link is dead for that person's post, but apparently it should be simple code that triggers it.

Can someone who uses BitDefender try and compile a D app to see if they can recreate this?

Can confirm -- in the hello world windows form application, calling Runtime.initialize(); causes an access violation.

I'm having this issue with the latest 2.074 DMD.

When I create a program with DMD and bitdefender will delete that file and prevent writing that file again. I can go back to 2.073.1 change the name of the executable to be written and the program will not get deleted.

Bitdefender is also removing rdmd.exe, dustmite.exe, dman.exe, ddemangle.exe after extracting the files from the 7z file.

Please report false positives directly to your antivirus vendor. (Multiple) reports from end-users will likely be more effective than one report from the software vendor.

Did that, little hard to do since it keeps deleting the files and took some time to find where to report it.
