Latest McAfee DAT's - dodgy?

#1 Post by morgie » Fri Mar 10, 2006 5:20 pm

Hi guys, not sure if anyone else is running some form of McAfee virus protection and updated to the latest DATS (4715). If you start a scan it seems to detect lots of files that aren't viruses, including a lot of MS Office as W95/CTX. Anyone else getting this? If you do start a scan, just to be safe I'd be ready to stop it pretty sharpish! Someone has submitted it on Digg.com here.

Well, there was an issue - now corrected: http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_138884.htm

Make sure you're running the latest DAT's if you're using McAfee.

[EDIT]: News.com article found here if anyone is interested.
