to Baeseman, Cliff: It sounded real funny to me because I am running virus scan all the time and I also scan…

I am running the iRiS AntiVirus provided to me on my Dell laptop by Dell. The virus signatures were just updated last month. It detected the virus in in pp/bin/win32 directory only. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause anyone, but I was just reporting what my virus scanner told me. I believe you can download a free copy of iRiS AntiVirus from ftp://ftp1.us.dell.com/non-dell/iris2220.zip

Again, I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused anyone.

It sounded real funny to me because I am running virus scan all the time and I also

You are sure it is Cliff? I downloaded the package he was using to try it and it does report a virus in some but not all of the files. The files that it does report the problem were all built on exactly the same day or copied from the same source on the same day. All but 4 of the files with dates 5/3/99 report the virus. The clean ones were gdbw.exe, date.exe, echo.exe, and pwd.exe. The rest for that date report the problem.
