From: Kevin Hilman Date: 07 Jun 2000 17:01:05 -0700 Message-ID: Lines: 14 User-Agent: Gnus/5.0803 (Gnus v5.8.3) Emacs/20.4 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I downloaded setup.exe for the latest cygwin release from sourceware.cygnus.com. I run it and select a US mirror. I tried both ftp.freesoftware.com and sourceware.cygnus.com. When it downloads the gcc tarball my VirusScanner detects a virus in it. I'm running McAffee 4.5.0 (virus definition 4.0.4080). It doesn't name the virus, and can't clean it. To be safe I just quit setup.
