Thanks - good catch. I do see false positives with various scanners from time to time.
Fortunately, the problem ONLY occurs with on-demand scanning - NOT with the automatic on-access scanning. Hopefully, this reduced the impact somewhat. And yes, I do quarantine rather than delete (except for messages attachments).

It's already happened to a client of mine as it quarantined several of her key Cold Fusion .exe files. Please read the following for more info. http://it.slashdot.org/it/06/03/13/1322215.shtml McAfee has released a new definition file to repair the problem but if you've lost data you either have to pull it from quarantine or from backup.
