I donated and was directed to the Thank You site. When I tried to download:
FreeFileSync_7.7_Windows_Setup (forDonors) (email and key deleted for privacy)
Norton deleted the file. When I checked the details it said "Threat name: Suspicious.Cloud9"
I was able to Download and install the non Donor version without a problem.
Is there really a virus in the Donor Version?
Thank you, -Jay-

This is a Norton-AV false positive: Norton's heuristics are very blunt: If the file is not well-known (= distribution + age) => flag as suspicious.
