Let me explain why you may get a false positive by Virus scanners with my ObjSort program.

ObjSort does NOTHING but read the obj files which are just a text file,
then puts things in a standard format in another file which, again, is just a text file.

Microsoft Defender, as the prime example, will give a false positive and here is why!

MicroSucks has taken the stance that if a file is not Versigned? It's Bad! No exceptions from them. If they say it's bad? Screw you, it's bad JuJu.

Now to Verisign my files I'd have to fork over $70 bucks a year. Screw that unless someone else wants to pay!

I just add exceptions if my Virus scanner pops my own files bad.
