Summary: nimda.txt file - virus?

Initial Comment:
Hi

I just downloaded mainman-2.1.2.tgz and when 
extracting the files from the archive my virus scanner 
(McAfee VirusScan(v7)) reported that the file nimda.txt 
(mailman-2.1.2\tests\msgs\nimda.txt) contains a virus 
(Exploit-MIME.gen).

Has anyone else had this problem?

ttfn

Martin Heelis

The test suite contains a neutered virus sample.  It is
completely harmless and it's unfortunate that your virus
scanner is tripping on it.
