Lately, i have begun to get warnings against my setup's from 'Smart
Screen filter'

The attached scrrendump shows how it looks like in Danish - I really
do not think that many understands it here!

It says, that the smart screen filter in IE9 has identified my program
as a program, where it has few or no information, and recommends it to
delete the program.

Well, as i made the setup 10 minutes ago, its new...

I have recently changed sign code from BB-Soft A/S to Datasign A/S
Datasign A/S has untill now not made setup's of any kind.

Any who knows what to do about it?

BTW, and it's always a good idea to contact the vendor (Microsoft) to tell
them about the false-positive and what you think about their "protection"
method and hope they modify how SmartScreen behaves. Sometimes it can help
if you change the download location (e.g. use another sub-folder on your
server) and the warning goes way.

SmartScreen Filter is a big problem for millions of users for more than 3
years now. The security messages have nothing to do with your .EXE per-se
and it's completely out of your control.

Thats why i wrote - Perhaps OT. It should have been 'definately OT'

Yes, it shows that the problem is really shared with lots of other
software vendors
Thanks for the link!
