-- Ask the developer of Nod32. We, the grub4dos team, cannot imagine why 
grub4dos could be a virus. grub4dos is Free and Open-Source Software. Normally 
we build the binary on Linux.

But maybe(possibly), just because of this(i.e., the fact that it is FOSS), it 
is labelled as a virus. Compare to that, Linux is even considered as cancer by 
MS.

Not blaming you guys at all. I have been downloading all the new releases and 
this is the first Nod32 warning. It was more of out loud thinking question. I 
just wanted to make sure a file wasn't corrupt on upload. I turn my nod off and 
downloaded the file and all is well. Thanks for you guys and your work.

report.

I had the same problem with version 0.4.6a. The day before yesterday I sent a 
report by http://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN141 and today no 
false alarms.

I also sent a report few days ago also and I can download 0.4.6a today with no 
warning from Nod. Nod is great (sometimes) :)

No misdetection in later virus signature update of NOD32. Issue closed.
