What happened?

@RobBryce has reported that WISE is being identified as a virus on wondows by bit defender.

It seems that bit defender is rather draconian and is the most sensitive, windows defender and mcafee did not trip on it.

@tredpath indicates that this is a false positive.

I'd like to deal with code signing before this item.

@RobBryce Time is still of the essence. I would like to avoid creating further delays. This will create a delay. I would say if you dont get immediate satisfaction on a signing key, we should not wait for the signing key to resolve this issue. We may have to take other action like release and explain the work around. Also, correct me if I am wrong, this issue can be worked around by turning off bit defender and installing and turning it back on correct?
