Anyone else seeing this?
I've done an uninstall, removed the saved downloads from setup.
Then installed them again.
Same issue.
Which file exactly?
There is /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/Encode/Byte.pm
or /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/auto/Encode/Byte/*.dll*
I have no such virus on my machine which could have make it into the
distro.
AVGFree is wrong.
$ clamscan /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/auto/Encode/Byte/Byte.dll \
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/auto/Encode/Byte/libByte.dll.a \
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/Encode/Byte.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/auto/Encode/Byte/Byte.dll: OK
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/auto/Encode/Byte/libByte.dll.a: OK
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/Encode/Byte.pm: OK

It wouldn't be the first time an anti-virus product gave a false
positive. Recently AVG started to report the Python Windows installer as
a virus, which gave a few people a short sharp shock. But they did fix
their signatures very quickly once informed of the position.
