    [Release] Directory Monitor

    Hello peeps! :)

    Ever wanted to download a game or big files at night, and then going to bed knowing that your PC will turn off once the downloads are done? Now it's possible! :)

    I've coded a little program that will monitor a folder where your download(s) will be, and once it's done, your pc will shutdown!

    Note: Be sure to start your downloads before monitoring!

    Download link: [Redacted]

    Please report any bugs!, and if you have any suggestions, contact me (e-mail in the readme.txt file) or post them below!

    Future updates:
    -Custom interval.
    -Minimize to tray.

    Virus scans claim it's suspicious, and the application appears to be encrypted to some degree so I can't know for sure whether it is or not. In the interest of users' safety, please provide the source code.

    It's packed :) It probably says "Confuser" or something like that, that's what I packed it with.

    Thank you for sharing your release with all of us here at RaGEZONE, but here's my problem: You're releasing an application of your own creation that is being perceived as suspicious or malicious by numerous virus scanners. Some/all of these readings may be because you packed it. I can understand that you want to protect your source code (though for a quote "little program", it's arguably a questionable act), but in a scenario like this, I need to protect the users of this forum from something potentially malicious. I don't see any way for you to prove that your application isn't malicious without releasing the source code, or perhaps, at the very least, releasing it unpacked. Comprende? ;)

    You could submit it to Anubis. But I get your point of course.
