    Antivirus finding worm on install

    I was installing the Zygor client on a new machine and McAfee popped up the following warning:

    =============================

    Virus or threat detected
    Threat name: BAT/Autorun.worm.f (Virus)

    One or more items were detected on your computer.

    Threat name: Threat name: BAT/Autorun.worm.f (Virus)

    File: C;\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\ZygorGuidesClient.vbs

    =============================

    You might want to check your installer package to keep people from getting infected. Thanks!

    For some reason, McAfee doesn't like our client. This is a false positive, though, there is no virus.

      It's the McAfee antivirus, isn't it? (Right, you did mention it.) It's a false positive. It doesn't like our VBS script used to make the Client start at Windows startup, for some reason. We'll try to change the wording in it so that it doesn't trigger this anymore... Sorry about that.
