Hi everyone.
A few weeks ago I heard about DJGPP compiler, and recently downloaded
it
from the tasmanian government mirror.  When extracting DJDEV201.ZIP on
my
win95 machine, ThunderByte AV (V 8.00) interrupted some files,
claiming
that they contained "unknown viruses".  The files and the messages
TBAV
gave are listed below.  Is this just part of the files, or are they
infected with something nasty.

The files are:
djtart.exe; djtarx.exe; dtou.exe; dexegen.exe; echo.exe; go32-v2.exe;
merge.exe; redir.exe; split.exe; symif?.exe (not sure of last letter,
p or
y I think); update.exe; and utod.exe

All of them had these comments from TBAV:
*Suspicious or odd stack
*Checks for exe or com files
*invalid opcode (non 8088) or out of range branch
Some also had this comment:
*additional data at end of file, probably internal overlay

Thanks again.

Dave
