  11. Has anyone other than me gotten a virus alarm, probably false, in StarCommander
  12. 0.71? I got this from McAfee:
  13.  
  14. D:\DIV\SC\SC.EXE
  15.    Found the RITT.6917 virus
  16. D:\DIV\SC\SC_ARC\STARLYNX.EXE
  17.    Found the RITT.6917 virus
  18. D:\DIV\SC\SC_ARC\STARTAPE.EXE
  19.    Found the RITT.6917 virus
  20. D:\DIV\SC\SC_ARC\STARZIP.EXE
  21.    Found the RITT.6917 virus
  22.  
  23. The strange thing is that only StarCommander is infected, that no other virus
  24. scanner I tried found it, and that the programs are completely non-functional
  25. after letting McAfee remove the presumed virus. Is this report normal?
