I think depending on your antivirus of choice, NL had been getting falsely red flagged for years. And probably has a lot to do with the "online features". But in general any non-well known program you download tends to get red flagged.

To answer your question; unless something *drastic* has changed in a recent update; no NeoLemmix is not a virus, we've all been using it for years now. ;)

I went ahead and took the risk. I installed it...

Now I have all these little green-haired critters running around on my screen.

It's gonna take some work to get rid of them. ;)
