Hi folks,

My antivirus program (Avira, free version) recently found a virus in the file: MechVM-win32-2010-06-15.zip

The virus detected was: TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen2

It's been flagged as a Trojan.

Just thought you might want to know.

I have identified several files which were reported as containing malware. I uploaded these files to Avira, and now they sent me a notification that they were false positives. So these problems should vanish with one of the next updates for the virus database.
