I exclude the Cygwin root now to have no problems. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: David Starks-Browning [mailto:starksb@ebi.ac.uk] Gesendet am: Dienstag, 22. August 2000 22:08 An: cygwin@sources.redhat.com Betreff: Cygwin .tar.gz files and anti-virus software Greetings Cygwin devotees, It is known that Network Associates (formerly McAfee) anti-virus software can "hang" or otherwise behave poorly when dealing with Cygwin .tar.gz files. Has anyone experienced this problem with other anti-virus software? (You needn't tell me that you use such-an-such and don't have a problem. Or to confirm that you've had problems with McAfee. Just report problems with other anti-virus scanners.) Thanks very much.
