[lazarus] Win32 Lazarus Compiler contains a Virus! "Scan is Showing Nothing of the Sort"

[Baeseman, Cliff]

That is the only scanner that is reporting it. Norton is not finding
anything neither is Macafee.

My guess is that it is a false signal fired by that particular scanner.
Those are GNU win32
ported apps and it probably just does not like some binary signature in
them.

You are sure it is Cliff? I downloaded the package he was using to try
it and it does report a virus in some but not all of the files. The
files that it does report the problem were all built on exactly the same
day or copied from the same source on the same day. All but 4 of the
files with dates 5/3/99 report the virus. The clean ones were gdbw.exe,
date.exe, echo.exe, and pwd.exe. The rest for that date report the
problem.
