What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download ampy.1.2.3.win32.exe for Python 2.7 from you website.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected the file to download to my PC but Symantec's Norton Internet 
Security quarantines the file because it considers 'WS.Reputation.1' a security 
threat. I attempted to download ampy 3x with the same results.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm attempting to download your Pygraphics ampy.1.2.3.win32.exe for the 32 bit 
Python 2.7.3 software to a Windows 7 AMD64 bit multiprocessor PC. I have 
Symantec's Norton Internet Security suite version 19.9.1.14 installed on my 
machine.

Please provide any additional information below.
Based on what I'm seeing on the Symantec User Forums this appears to be an 
ongoing problem and I'm deducing that it is related to Norton's Reputation Scan 
(not enough users worldwide). I've attached a jpeg file of the relevant Norton 
screens.

Addendum to previous post: Norton Internet Security is flagging Pygraphics-2.1.win32.exe as a security threat also. I've attached supporting jpeg files. Please note that I'm attempting the downloads from "http://pythonhosted.org/PyGraphics/install.html" as I was directed to this website from the Practical Programmer website (Python user forum). Thank you in advance.
