My thoughts never stray far from the Ukraine situation - you have the support of most of the world - a Merry Christmas to you Arthur and hopefully a happier new year.

Norton says is it in the executable produced by Visual Studio 2022 and removes the .exe file as soon as it is scanned by norton or executed with norton in background. My whole system has been scanned by Norton without this alert. Just the executable from VS.
Program uses opengl32.lib;glu32.lib;odbc32.lib;odbccp32.lib
The main program code is my own.
command line:
/OUT:".\Debug/shadow.exe" /MANIFEST /NXCOMPAT /PDB:".\Debug/shadow.pdb" /DYNAMICBASE "opengl32.lib" "glu32.lib" "odbc32.lib" "odbccp32.lib" "kernel32.lib" "user32.lib" "gdi32.lib" "winspool.lib" "comdlg32.lib" "advapi32.lib" "shell32.lib" "ole32.lib" "oleaut32.lib" "uuid.lib" /DEBUG /MACHINE:X86 /SAFESEH /INCREMENTAL:NO /PGD:".\Debug\shadow.pgd" /SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE /MANIFESTUAC:"level='asInvoker' uiAccess='false'" /ManifestFile:".\Debug\shadow.exe.intermediate.manifest" /LTCGOUT:".\Debug\shadow.iobj" /ERRORREPORT:PROMPT /ILK:".\Debug\shadow.ilk" /NOLOGO /TLBID:1
Has anyone experienced this behavior? Is this a Norton imagination? Or real?
Some say yes imagined.
Some say no.
It is not detected by virus detecting portable apps emsisoft or clamwin.

Check it with a different AV product - if it passes a couple of them, it's probably a false positive. These happen - AV scanners look for virus signatures which can occur innocently in "normal apps" while they are being developed, but understandably the AV companies aren't going to tell you exactly what triggered the detector!
Re-order your code; change your compiler optimisations; take chunks out until it goes away, then slowly put it back until it re-occurs. find out where your code trigger the AV scanner, and you are half way there.
And remember this: better that it triggers on your system than on a clients ...

There is a setting in Norton to specify certain subdirectories to not be scanned. I don't remember where it was, since I eliminated that program when it refused to shut up and kept advertising itself in the tray. Set your programs to compile in one of those specified directories and you should be good.

Yes, I found it in settings, anti-virus,scans and risks, exclusions.

When you say you eliminated the program, do you mean you were able to successfully uninstall it 100%?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I used its uninstaller and didn't look into it any deeper when it was done. Got Defender working and was happy.

I had a simple dot NET program that I wrote that McAfee started deleting a few years after it was in production.(only on developer laptops, not on servers as we used a different AV there)
I ended up renaming some internal items and changing compiler options to include debug info to prevent deletion. It changed the signature enough to no longer match.

yeah, in the process, but not easy. I am thinking it's opengl library related. This program is also quite old. at least 8-10 years. It's testing a real-time shadowing algorithm I developed many moons ago. Not original, but my version.

sigh, I must be old. I've actually had interviews like this.
True story - where I consult, one of the engineers (employee) came to me with a critical problem at 4pm on a Friday. He was very agitated as his test was for a big, very important, must not disappoint customer, and the issue must be resolved ASAP. Me: "Well, it's 4pm here, but I can be in tomorrow morning at 7am..."
insert long pause with confused face, he said, "But, tomorrow is Saturday..." I said, "And... what's your point?"
We fixed it Monday, importance seems to be relative.
