My current projects have been producing "trojan" messages (many) with my current security pkge. Comodo Internet Security 2013 Pro. Personally, I lean towards thinking that Comodo is producing false positives. Any ideas out there will help Comodo and myself....tnx in advance..../Hizzoner

Depends on the project science applications and what OS they used to make them, what OS stores them, etc. And then what's stored on your computer and could possibly infect other applications.

But if all of the above are Linux, Unix, none, then it's false positives. If you want to be utterly sure though, send them through https://www.virustotal.com/en/. That scans uploaded binaries with 48+ separate scanners. If Virustotal says the binary is clean, it's clean.
