In 2.2, both ex.exe and exw.exe are compressed executables.
That makes them look strange to some virus scanners.
That also makes them less likely to actually get infected
with a virus, since the virus won't understand the compression format,
and probably won't insert itself correctly into the .exe.

I can keep a list of which virus scanners are falsely
complaining. People should send me any virus reports that
they get.
