Note: Microsoft Service Pack 2 places numerous security checks on programs before download. Virus protections are maintained on all computers involved with production and upload of WeaveDesign to the PPWG website. (Version 1.5 – September 17, 2004). Some anti-virus software may show you a warning when you go to install WeaveDesign. This is a “false positive”; and it is OK to go ahead and install.
