Norton life lock auto blocking c++ programs

I know this isn't exactly a c++ problem but I couldn't the solution anywhere else. I have gcc installed, but whenever I try to compile a file the .exe appears for a second before disappearing. I get the following message "Auto-Protect is processing security risk Huer.AdvML.B", and then after a few seconds I get another message "Auto-Protect has removed a security risk Huer.AdvML.B from your computer". for reference this is the command I use to compile the program.

    g++ -o myProgram.exe Main.cpp  

is there any way to filter what get deleted and what doesn't? any help would be appreciated.
