Hi

I've just read this article (in French):
http://www.developpez.com/actu/42480/Les-developpeurs-detestent-ils-les-antivirus-Un-programmeur-manifeste-sa-haine-envers-ces-solutions-de-securite/

Now I understand why some antivirus block JOGL. When a programmer builds GlueGen, some native libraries are created or renamed as DLLs and such silly tools believe that it is a self-replicant virus.

In my humble opinion, if I'm right, we won't have any problem with client machines except if the feature allowing to extract native libraries from JARs is detected as such a virus too.

Best regards.
