I had the same warning with Windows Defender. It also thinks the 32 bit compile of Monolith 2 has the same virus. Defender has also been picky with some 32 bit compiles of Stockfish from the abrok.eu web site.
I am thinking these are false alarms. Both are open source, so one can make their own executable if they feel uncomfortable with the executables provided.

Some words about Linux version: this task seems much more difficult then i expected. The good news are: the new version of Delphi IDE already has compiler for Linux, MacOs (and even Android and Ios) platforms. The bad news: Booot has lots of Windows-specific code (WinApi calls for multithread and console input-output routines). I have to rewrite this code completely. The main problem: i am not a programmer yet and chessprogramming is my only hobby in this area (this is why 'Pascal' - the only language i studied 25 years ago in University). I really confused how it works in Linux and need some community help to make platform-independed product. This quarantine is only good for hobby and I already have new beta version of my engine (seems also already about 30-50 Elo stronger then just released) and it should be good if this new booot 6.5 version would have some non-windows binaries.
Hello, are there some news on this ? That is, progress on removing windows-specific code to allow for Linux compiles, and progress on new search/eval enhancements.
Did you get some help ? Most here aren't familiar with Delphi, especially as it's a commercial IDE we don't have, but certainly some general knowledge on SMP programming could still help clear some hurdles.
