A lot of anti-virus detect HFS as a virus. Most of the time, if not all of the time this is a
false positive. Simply allow or make an exception in the application.
If it was downloaded as an official
beta or from the download link on the
homepage. Then you can be fairly certain it is a clean file, your anti-virus is displaying an incorrect reading. It is simply detecting that HFS is an application that connects to the internet and acts as a server. If you have downloaded HFS from another location, re-download from either of these locations to be certain.
HFS contains no Virus, Spyware or Malware!Good security packages or firewalls will warn you about any unknown program that tries connect to the internet. And will ask if you wish to allow or deny access. All you have to do is allow HFS access to the internet.
