While updating McAfee definitions, I got this message:
File SK_det.mcs is corrupt.
Downloading complete file again.
I don't normally expect files to be corrupt in Win2K/SP4/NTFS,
especially with proper shutdown (or mostly, hibernation).
Of course, I let it download again and am rescanning. I wonder
if it is overly paranoid to suspect that it resulted from malware?
I realize that anything is possible, but I'm wondering about
likelihood. Any thoughts?

I was hoping that it was just a newserver problem, but wasn't sure.
Strange that the newserver problem only afflicts one NG. But hey, I
don't pretend to understand the policies with which the newserver is
administered.

| David,
|
| I included in my post the reply by Peacekeeper saying that he would
| post to the McAfee forum. That's what I was referring to. His
| headers show that he restricted his reply to alt.comp.anti-virus.
However,
| this thread seems to be no longer present in that NG, at least in one
| alternate newserver that I checked.
