I was creating an executable with pyinstaller from a simple Python file. My antivirus Avast blocked the executable claiming to have viruses, although it did not have.
So I made the following code in Python:
print("hello world")
I called the pyinstaller to create the executable of that code with the command:
pyinstaller -wF meuarquivo.py
He generated the executable: meuarquivo.exe.
When executing the meuarquivo.exe, Avast blocked the program and moved it to the virus vault. With that, my doubts are:
- Why a simple "hello world" was considered a virus?
- How to make my executable not be considered as virus, since it is not?
if you help, I have found an article on the Internet that shows the problem, but it does not help to resolve or explain why it occurs: https://www.defcon-lab.org/se-python-entao-virus/

Our link helped me a lot, but so in one of the answers a guy said to compile them yourself on your machine, Know what he meant by that? sorry I am new in this area to compile and make executables
