If you haven't realized yet, most auto-restarting software is detected as malicious, often a trojan. Most of the time, the program wont do any harm, but is still treated as malicious anyway.
All in all, if you scan a source and find a trojan, make sure it's not just an auto-restarter. If it's just the auto-restarter, you should be fine, and even just to be safe you could simply remove the auto-restarter executable.
If any of you don't feel like risking it with the default auto-restarters provided with the source, I wrote a pretty simple one which can obviously be trusted. It is located here: Only the registered members can see the link.
This should hopefully prevent further claims of virus spreading or confusion.
