Packer Detection Alert

I am using Captivate 2. I have published my project so that it is a stand alone .exe file. When I email to others, I get, "PACKER DETECTION ALERT" from McAfee and the file is deleted. Is there any way around this?

Thanks
Jesse

Hi Jesse and welcome to our community

The way around it is to not send .EXE via E-Mail. It is a poor choice, as most E-Mail systems will simply block .EXE files. You could send a .SWF instead. But even better than that would be to push the content (.SWF, .HTM, .JS) to a server and simply send the recipient a link to the .HTM page.

Just a thought... Rick

Hi Rick,

Yes it looks like I will have to place a link in lieu of sending the published .exe file.

Thanks
