Avira (and presumably all others) goes nuts on vmp_util.exe whenever it
appears anywhere, worse, when i configure the viewer and it downloads and
extracts the viewer manager package it immediately flags it as potentially
dangerous in such a way that said file becomes completely phased, i cannot
remove it, move it or otherwise interact with it and the configuration
fails with "permission denied" until i restart the PC. I wonder what i can
do about it, the moment i'm going to pack this thing into the Viewer
package and offer a download people will chop my head off that its infected
with Viruses.

I know AntiVirus applications are shit but i'm worried about this happening
not just to me but to basically every single user, this would be absolutely
horrible.
