That's pretty strange. It looks like that is Chrono download manager saying it is a virus though, not Microsoft Security Essentials. Can you try downloading the standalone version? I feel like something in Chrono is triggering as a false positive. I don't really have a way to prove that it isn't a virus to you, but every bit of code that is in the app is in the github, plus the code that is added with PyInstaller, which I don't see anything about that being a virus.
Upon looking into it further, I am seeing that it is more than just Chrono reporting it as a virus and I have been able to find things saying that PyInstaller is sometimes incorrectly flagged as a virus because it comes with some of the executables pre-compiled. Apparently compiling those manually should resolve that. I've been meaning to look into automating the build process for Windows .exe's since I am able to automate the Linux build. Should be fairly easy to also add in a step to compile those.
