That oops is now fixed, but I wanted to mention one other thing. Microsoft Security Essentials, now a very common antivirus/antimalware scanner on Windows, is incorrectly detecting Lib/distutils/command/wininst-14.0.exe as malware (originally reported at http://bugs.python.org/issue27383). My assumption is that someone distributed malware using a bdist_exe package, and our stub executable got picked up in the signature. I rebuilt the executable on my own machine from early source code and it still triggered the scan, so there does not appear to have been any change to the behaviour of the executable. I've already submitted a false positive report, so I expect an update to correct it at some point in the future, but please do not be alarmed to see this warning when installing Python 3.5.2, or when scanning any earlier version of 3.5. Feel free to contact me off-list or steve.dower at microsoft.com if you have concerns. Cheers, Steve
