The OP never mentioned what virus software he was using. I merely brought up my own personal findings. I've used avira and avast with good results.

downloaded the link as a test - "Avast!" anti-virus says "all clean"


False positive or not, this means we'll be getting reports about it.

Cheers,

I've never heard of Avira.  I'd 99% certain it's a false positive.  I recommend contacting the developers and reporting it as such.

Hi James,

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pcgen/files/PCGen%20Unstable/6.05.04/pcgen-6.05.04-full.zip/download

I opened up the zip, and I can't see anything added or obviously
tampered with.

Might be a false positive, but the history of Sourceforge has people on
edge.

Cheers,
Andrew
