Linux is bug-free? Hahaha! To the OP: it is not uncommon for anti-[virus/malware/etc] programs to flag FOSS software as FOSS software devs generally don't "register" their "products" with these companies. That does not mean that all FOSS software is 100% safe, but anti-* programs' warnings are in no way indicative of problems. -- Dotan Cohen http://bido.com http://what-is-what.com Please CC me if you want to be sure that I read your message.
