Hey no worries!! I work on an IT Helpdesk, so I know about the tests
that should be carried out to determine if there is a problem (as you
can see it's all pretty logical and merely a process of elimination.)
But from your first post I think it's likely to be the program you've
used. I'm glad that the person who shouted "VIRUS!!!" didn't dishearten
you as he was likely to be a newbie, who doesn't quite get that
sometimes AV programs get a little snotty over what they class as a
virus (McAfee is an excellent program and one of the few that I've
actually bought ;-) but it does get snotty about what it classes as a
virus, but it is easily turned off.) BTW Good job on the latest vid!!
