Origami 1.2.3... Anti-virus software is ESET Smart Security 4 (NOD32).

Hello,

Origami ships with a few exploit samples taken from old vulnerabilities in the 
wild.
As they contain potentially malicious JS scripts, they may be detected as 
malware, although they shouldn't since they are contained in Ruby scripts.

does your AV software reports which files are concerned?

Thanks for the response...

About AV report, well, I have not paid attention. :( I exited my AV, installed 
gem, and then started AV again. I will try to reproduce issue on my other 
computer, I will let You know.

Yes, I tried installing origami 1.2.3 gem, McAfee didn't like 
exploit_customdictopen.rb when it was unpacking in  folder C:\Ruby 
193\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\cache\origami-1.2.3.gem\data.tar.gz\data.tar.  

It "detects" it as JS/Exploit-BO.gen.

Unfortunately, my AV product is controlled by group policy, and I can't 
configure it to ignore it.  

I'm going to install it on linux instead, but if you wanted to know what it was 
hitting the above was it.
