A bit bored/unfocused at work and thought I should try HIDMacros on Windows 10 (ref the bug report of no visible window and possible alt+space workaround). Unfortunately Symantec doesn't like the download.
"There is strong evidence that this file is untrustworthy".
Risk: WS.Reputation.1
Status: Infected
Says this for both your .exe and the xpl file.

Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection
Bad for Symantec
More seriously: both files are built from Delphi sources available at github - no tricks inside. They use low level API and "suspicious" funcionality (HidMacros is in fact key logger) so maybe that's the risk.

Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection
Yeah, bad for them. No wonder many security people suggest using only Windows Defender. At least it works on my home computer. Now I just need to find out why x-keys, Sidewinder strategic commander, Sidewinder Game Voice, Corsairs MMO-mouse and the Hercules Shuttle Pro isn't registering keypresses in HID-macros, yet are listed in the devices tab.
