Hi, in the documentation in the FAQ it's listed
Q: Anti-virus flags WinWM software as malware, or disables it
A: WinWM injects code into every window that it controls, to regulate window behaviour, this can flag anti-viruses, because some malware will attempt to inject itself into many processes to hide itself. Anti-viruses cannot tell the difference.
