TBH, I haven't been using Cartoon Animator for a while, but this morning I thought I'd have a play around with it. Bear in mind that I only ever install from the Reallusion Hub, I was rather shocked when I went to start Cartoon Animator and my anti-virus immediately deleted the executable. I immediately went to the Hub, uninstalled, then re-installed and the program is running again with no problem.

Hi...

I would certainly advise running a full system scan of your computer because it's possible a virus has got into your system, through other means.

Most likely though this is a false positive which can occur from time to time with different anti-virus software.

As for Cartoon Animator itself, this has been tested and is totally virus free provided you installed using the Hub and not via a download from elsewhere. We also have had no other reports of this issue occurring which further points to a false positive from your anti-virus software.
