[Solved] Codeigniter downloading file dangerous warning message

When I download my PHP Excel file my internet security says this is a dangerous file but it is not.

Question is there any where in the code below that might be causing this warning from my McAfee security? How to stop it so does not detect it as a dangerous file.



Thank you for your time.

PHP Code:

<?php

class Events extends MX_Controller {

    public function generate_excel() {

        $query = $this->db->get('event');
        $excelresults = $query->result_array();

        require (APPPATH . 'third_party/PHPExcel-1.8/Classes/PHPExcel.php');
        require (APPPATH . 'third_party/PHPExcel-1.8/Classes/PHPExcel/Writer/Excel2007.php');

        $objPHPExcel = new PHPExcel();

        $objPHPExcel->getProperties()->setCreator("");
        $objPHPExcel->getProperties()->setLastModifiedBy("");
        
        $objPHPExcel->getProperties()->setSubject("");
        $objPHPExcel->getProperties()->setCreator("");
        $objPHPExcel->getProperties()->setDescription("");

        $objPHPExcel->setActiveSheetIndex(0);

        $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("A1", 'Event');
        $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("B1", 'Event Title');
        $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("C1", 'Event Date');
        $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("D1", 'Event Start Time');

        foreach (range('A', $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->getHighestDataColumn()) as $col) {
        $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()
                ->getColumnDimension($col)
                ->setAutoSize(true);
        } 

        $excelrow = 2;

        foreach ($excelresults as $excelresult => $excelvalue) {
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("A" . $excelrow, $excelvalue['event']);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("B" . $excelrow, $excelvalue['event_title']);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("C" . $excelrow, $excelvalue['event_date']);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue("D" . $excelrow, $excelvalue['event_start_time']);
        
            $excelrow++;
        }

        $filename = 'Bowling-Events-For-' . date('Y') . '.xlsx';
        $objPHPExcel->getProperties()->setTitle("Riwaka Bowling Club Events");

        header('Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel'); 
        header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="'.$filename.'"');
        header('Cache-Control: max-age=0'); 
        $objWriter = PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, 'Excel2007');
        $objWriter->save('php://output');
    }
}

There's only one rule - please don't tell anyone to go and read the manual.  Sometimes the manual just SUCKS!

It looks like a localhost xampp issue.

I tried with vHost and now the error goes away.
