[QUOTE="LaurentG, post: 934895, member: 91050"] Hi [USER=86910]struppigel[/USER] if you want (and have time to do so....), pls feel free to submit the script to Defender. Their answer will be interesting to read.... Or do whatever you want with the script. As already said, even if it is a script I wrote, there is absolutely nothing "private" in it (only my first name in the D:\Users\[B]Laurent[/B]\.... paths) And the programs that the script call (jhead and sticky) are free softs, open source for jhead (and not for Sticky) but both usage is open and free. On my side, I have just finished to split my script in two scripts : I have now a subscript that is ONLY in charge to download the file. It accepts two parameters : the URL, and the filepath to create, and sends a not null Rc in case of any error. Now the "main" script do not anymore download itself anything, but only - define the different parameters - runs the sub-script - depending on the Rc runs jhead or sticky and log file creation With this architecture, Defender doesn't see any more any threat, neither at load of the scripts, not at their run time.... while what is run is EXACTLY the same than in previous situation ! [B][U]So for me, the problem is now closed.[/U][/B] Nevertheless, I'll have a look on the forum, in case you post answers provided by Defender to your "false positive" request. Thank you to all people who participate in this thread for your participation, your advices, etc... [/QUOTE]
