Hi,

Those of you who want to have the "second opinion" when you favorite antivirus detects a suspicious file will probably like the following sites:

http://www.virscan.org/
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
http://www.virustotal.com/

These sites allow you to upload a file and have it checked by *5 to *0 antiviruses. It's funny that virtually any file is reported as "suspicious" by at least one or two antiviruses, i.e. false positives are a major problem these days.
