Okay here's the bottom line.  Your code is suspicious that's why these virus scanners are warning us.  Just think of it this way.  You walk down the street and see the sign "Blood and Crips Territory, Dangerous, Possible chance of losing your life.."  would you continue to use that road or would you heed the warning.  

If there's a way to remove the suspicious code, why don't you do it before packaging it for miners.


No, here's the bottom line: it doesn't work that way, and your analogy doesn't apply to this situation. It can only warn you if you have reason to believe the code is infected, or if you have no idea of its pedigree. Since you have an entire forum telling you it's fine (and believe me, I've gotten these same warnings you have, so I know what I'm talking about), then you have an idea of its pedigree, and can be assured that, barring an entire forum's worth of people having traumatic brain injuries, you can stop worrying.
