I'm asking this question because I've been told that an .exe I created
using a tool similar to Starkit but for another scripting language,
specifically the "One Click Ruby Application" (or OCRA for short), but
I've been told by some that the resultant .exe has been falsely
reported by McAfee as being a virus.

I'm wondering if anybody has ever had a similar experience with
Starkits? (Am hoping *not* :)

I have only seen it happen when using UPX compression (one reason why I don't bother with UPX these days).
