False-positive "Trojan.Zlob-7277" virus detection

[NewsArchive]

All,

A "false-positive" is another way of saying "mistake". As applied to the
field of anti-virus programs, a false positive occurs when the program
mistakenly flags an innocent file as being infected. Over-sensitivity in
the automatic detection of viruses (or heuristics) leading to false alarms
about virus infection is something of an Achilles Hell for anti-virus
scanners, which by their nature need frequent updating.

ClamAV is an excellent and very popular AntiVirus system for UNIX. It's
running behind-the-scenes on most UNIX server worldwide.

http://www.clamav.net/

ClamAV released a virus definition update (on 8/1/2008) that caused its
product to ID all SetupBuilder application files (installer, uninstaller,
webupdate, etc.) as Trojan.Zlob-7277 virus. As a result, quite a few virus
scanner (e-mail scanning on mail gateways, FTP, etc.) removed files compiled
with any version of SetupBuilder 5.x and 6.x (and even SetupBuilder 7).

This was a false-positive "Trojan.Zlob-7277" virus detection!

We were in contact with ClamAV and they fixed this bug early this morning,
around 11 o'clock. The virus definition is updated around the world now.

<ROFL> Oh my God. What a good looking man this Charles (or Friedrich)
"was" <g> But I fear this is a photo from the "Good Old Days" :) Friedrich
has a new hairstyle now (11+ years later).

Girl: Never told you anyone sir, that you look very much like Kojak?

LOL - well buddy, I know where your hair went<g>.

At 51 I haven't had a haircut in 19 months<g>. No particular reason other
than I just never had long hair before.

Fortunately (thanks to good genes<g>) the hair is doing fine (now if I
could just get rid of that spare tire<g>).

I have to laugh every time I am at the store and some person there looks me
over and asks if I am a professor at the local University...

Life is too short not to have some fun with it<g>.

Friedrich,

You are right - that was a younger looking Friedrich/Charles.

However, here IS the real deal - Charles at 51 - "At 51 I haven't had a
haircut in 19 months<g>."

Some will say as Charles has matured, he has taken on the quality of some
famous person - you decide!

I've always said that maintaining our crew of "four legged kids" (no matter
what the annual vet and food bill) was a better deal than even one of the
"two legged" kids<g>

> It rubs the gravy on it's skin

ROFL!

We used to have one Schipperke female who was always a bit of a whack job.
As she got older she would stand on three legs (front lifted) and stare at
you for a LONG time.

I always told my wife that she was imaging how she would be basted in
gravy<g>.

That's a start, but you still need a bulldozer and a backhoe.
