You should make sure that the Python To Exe program you are using is safe.
Running the executable file through virus total returns:

with even some well known anti-viruses (such as Symantec and Microsoft's Windows Defender) return it as malicious or as a PUP

this apparently downloaded a virus onto my laptop

to be expected

Ok, fair enough lol. I guess I should take the blame.

nope, its not a virus. You can look at source code: https://github.com/azatshtru/nhentaiscraper

Did it show any bad behavior or was reported as a virus by your firewall? It is still in development so if you can provide me with some info about what happened, I will probably fix a potential problem for future downloaders.

Sorry for the late reply, I don't really check responses on itch.io

It is fine, I dont really reply quickly either lol. well, it just said that a virus was dectected in the software so I deleted it quickly and never actually played it. but after that nothing bad has happened to my laptop so im not sure.  Iv'e never actually gotten a virus from downloading games before so  it may have just been a false alarm? I dont know too much about virus things sorry.

its been 4 years so you obviously know but, alot of apps of this nature return false positives, you shouldn’t always take them as 100% truth, but deleting it was the best choice just in case.
