Gottfried, Well that is one of the risk with heuristic scanner. Sometimes they pick up false positives.. my general rule of thumb with files that ID as positive is I say to myself, did I create it myself (or at least get it from a trusted source).. if the answer is yes I just add the file to the ignore list. (these exist in every virus package by the way)... I remember a couple years back there was a really neat util that was always picked up as a virus.. (don't remember what the util was now).. but it was the same thing happening. Regards, Steve
