    Morning all AVG users out there,


  There seems to be a false positive in last night's AVG update (pro version,
haven't tested the free one yet).  It reports Cygwin's tail.exe as being
infected with "Trojan horse Agent.LCA".  This is happening to us with
coreutils-6.7-2.  The md5sum of that version of tail.exe is:

/bin $ md5sum /bin/tail.exe
8c4f78e8c1ea25079f3098c282ce64b7 */bin/tail.exe


  I will file a report with Grisoft.  Their support department has always been
very responsive, so I expect they'll fix it promptly.


    cheers,
      DaveK
