I just installed "ProcrastiTracker_Setup.exe" from http://strlen.com/procrastitracker/#download and Windows Defender is reporting:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=Trojan%3aWin32%2fBearfoos.A!ml&threatid=2147731250.

"ProcrastiTracker_Setup.exe" has a SHA1 hash of 4fce6e14fd35bdd2ed82b3e534bf196efd2f325a Anyone else getting this?

Virus checkers sometimes report these things simply because it is an executable they don't see very often, and thus rate the possibility of a match higher.

I run Windows Defender, and never had it complain about PT.. and I created the above installer.

Sounds good... I figured that was the case, but I thought it was better to check just in case others saw it. :-) Thanks and sorry for the false alarm.

And thanks for the great and very useful tool!
