This is rather disappointing to say the least, as Sophos is commercial grade AV software, and I'm very nervous indeed about "allowing" Sophos to run Realflight9 as a consequence. As "anti-vm" properties in code are, as I understand it, employed by virus writers to recognise "honey-trap" pc's (Virtual Machines - VM's) and to then conceal or otherwise cause said viruses not to run, then it's really hard to see why code interpretable by Sophos as malign "anti-vm" is in the realflight 9 installation at all.
Note that I am NOT suggesting that there's any malicious code in the installation, but I do think Knife-edge software need to contact Sophos urgently to identify why this warning is issued, and to get rid of he offending code, so that those of us installing RF9 do not have to over-rule AV software, which is just nuts.
If KE software wish to see the precise warning from Sophos AV, please let me know. Anyone other AV products come up with this warning?
