Not sure if this happens to anyone else BUT


if i try to compile this VERY basic c++ program (was showing someone how cout worked)



#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
cout <<"frggr"; //ROFL -- apparently cout <<"frggr"; is malware... makes me smile, my handle is famous :)



system ("PAUSE");
return 0;

}


Avast sees it as malware... I tested and it seems that it is the cout<<"frggr"; line that make this happen.

Anyone know why \\ does this happen to anyone else if they try to compile this.

Maybe in *******....

More likely that something in the compiled code resembles something in AVAST's definitions, maybe a misplaced confidence in a sequence of bytes common to this code and some malware?

Yeah, way back in the dark ages I had to write some NetBIOS code (barf). Bing! The virus scanner thought my program was evil. I had to rearrange the code to prevent the false detection.
