OK, I believe we know now about the origin of the warnings (I'll write a news item about it later).

Furthermore I did a scan on jotti.org today and got no virus warnings, can anyone confirm that nod32 does not recognize the file anymore? (I tested the installer and the amule.exe file.)

Nonetheless, there's now a aMule-2.2.2-mingw32.zip on sourceforge. I cross-compiled it yesterday on Linux and tested it on wine.

I don't use NOD32, I use AVG Free and it still detects a Trojan horse Generic11.accx in amulegui.exe. I can't send this file to jotti.org (I'm not sure, maybe AVG Free blocks the file).

The good new is that AVG free doesn't detect anything suspicious in your new aMule-2.2.2-mingw32.zip

Sorry for my bad English, I'm Spanish

I've just tried amulegui.exe with jotti.org. The only scanner detecting "Win32:Trojan-gen {Other}" is Avast, all others do not find anything.

I'm very glad there are no new problems with my binaries, thank you, DeM, for giving us feedback on this.
