Hi!
I have checked my System and the setup file with AntiVir/XP and Norton
Antivirus 2002 (both uptodate).
I could not find any viruses. Please check your system, it might have
infected the setup file.
Please keep me up to date ;)

Regards, Mario

p.s. Anyone else with same problem?

By the way, how to i get the ">" for reply messages, i cant find it anymore!
:/

Hi Mario,

The file got infected with worm W32.Bugbear@mm and it spread to the whole
WinXP machine immediately.  Fortunately I was able to fix it removing the
worm.

Another strange thing is your mentioned menu on the left of the website
disappeared on IE but can be seen on Mozilla.
