[Urgent] Help! Alternative to Enigma Virtual Box

[LukE1616]

Ahm... So, resuming everything, I have developed a very small demo game fory school. Only problem is that I need it to be a single exe file to be validated as in the rules. Immediately I searched and found about Enigma virtual box. I download it and installed it, but when my game was boxed, every single time it tried to use a tmp file the anti-virus just completely freaked out with multiple tmps, saying they were infected with IDP.ALEXA.51. I know it could be a false positive, but I have to avoid any trouble related to malware. Also I am very paranoid, and I really need an alternative to Enigma Virtual Box, because through experiencing with the virus and some cientific theory based processes (I don't know how to say it in English, but it is a very basic concept for experimenting and trying to find an answer. Not fancy at all.), I came to the conclusion that the virus came with it (from the official site).
Any help would be very appreciated! Also, sorry for the bad English.

If you have a strong enough machine, create a virtual machine and install the enigma virtual box there. This way you're running no risks.
Nevertheless, enigma virtual box should be safe. It's a code wrapper and these are a target of antiviruses quite frequently.

EDIT: I have installed, launched and even scanned Enigma virtual box. Eset did not find anything bad. I'd say it's a false positive.

Hmmmmmmm... Yeah, I'm pretty sure of that too, mainly because I searched in the whole computer for something and didn't find any. Also, I forgot to say, but if I box the exe without allowing it to create tmps, the virus thing won't show up. I mainly need an alternative program because it will run in school computers, and I don't want to get myself messed up by providing a game that supposedly has a virus.
The virus pop up only shows up when running a game boxed by the program, but while using the program itself.

Sorry, Kes, but I'm really new here and did not know where to post this. I was (and I am) in a hurry to finish that game, so I posted in where I judged to be the most logical place to post. Again, sorry.

the only thing you can do in case of a false positive is to send the file with the false positive to the company that programmed the antivirus. They'll check it more and then provide an exception into their next virus update.

There is no general way to prevent false-positive messages for MV-Based games because MV uses HTML-technology for local access, and a heuristic search (which is basically saying "let's make a guess which series of numbers could be a command from a virus that infects the computer") can always confuse that with the same sequences from a real virus unless the virus definition knows what the program really is.

If you only download programs from their original publisher and that publisher is halfway known, then most likely everything is virus-free and such messages are usually false-positives.

No one can give an absolute guarantee because the people checking the uploads are also only human - the worst virus I ever got was from inside the antivirus program provided by a magazine CD, because it was an extremely tricky virus that had bypassed all their checks. The technical department of a university in the next city also had problems finding and removing that one from their computers and everyone could call themselves lucky that most viruses are made by script-kiddies that have no idea what they're doing. That virus was capable of writing on protected floppy-discs (yes, the write protection on A:-drive is handled by software and not hardware) and load itself before any OS could boot by using its own HDD-driver linking into the BIOS...

Hmmmmmmm, that makes a lot of sense! Everytime I try to rename the boxed executable into the same name as the original file and run it, my HTML 5 reader just goes crazy and crashes all around, and takes a couple of seconds to get working again. I'm getting more confident that It is a false positive, but I still have to check where did it come from, because IDP. ALEXA. 51 is pretty damn sneaky and hard to find. Anyway, thanks for answering.
Also, the only programs I've installed recently are GIMP (I've been using it for months, no probs) RPGMV (My 20 day trial is coming to an end today ) and Enigma virtual box. All of them came from official website. Only thing that could cause these viruses would be the tons of PowerPoint presentations I made for school these last months, that came annexed by email to me from other "computer noobs", and are not exactly trustable.

There has been a hint from someone from Degica that MV might go on sale on humble bundle sometime in the next few months

Seriously? If the discounts are great enough, this will 100% be my own birthday and Christmas gift! Boy I love rpg maker. So many possibilities, and I also want to learn a bit of Java - could help me in the future, since I will be getting a job - or at least trying to, by the end of the year, after my also wonderful last year at a national robotics competition thingie (WRO. I'm the team programmer, no wonder why I like coding languages so much). Gosh, I just want to work in an independent project, without problems with viruses or school!
For me, being part of a social group where everyone likes pretty much the same thing is really good. I feel a little better with it, since nobody gets what I say most of the time lol

Ok. So, today I talked to the computation analyst in school, and she said that it's better for me to find a alternative to Enigma rather then possibly having an anti virus warn me during the game presentation, in the front of some very, like, very important people. Please, help?
