Any time I compile a C program in Pelles C I get the Bloodhound.Sonar.9 virus message from Semantic Antivirus and my program is quarantined. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone know of a solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I guess you can put them in your av exceptions. I used to have a similar problem, not with Pelles C but with MinGW gcc. I don't remember when it went away, it was either when I upgraded the MinGW toolchain, or after an update to the av definitions.
PS. On a side note, I'm still getting av blocks on Pelles C (un)installers (Avira Antivir).
Any false positives should be reported to the AV software vendor to get corrected.
They know that those exist and they are usually fast at resolving such an issue.
The problem is that some AV vendors are not correct while they comment the MS COFF specification.
