Had these problems with Norton AV and NT 4. I exclude the Cygwin root now to
have no problems.

Betreff: Cygwin .tar.gz files and anti-virus software
Greetings Cygwin devotees,
It is known that Network Associates (formerly McAfee) anti-virus
software can "hang" or otherwise behave poorly when dealing with
Cygwin .tar.gz files.
Has anyone experienced this problem with other anti-virus software?
(You needn't tell me that you use such-an-such and don't have a
problem. Or to confirm that you've had problems with McAfee. Just
report problems with other anti-virus scanners.)
Thanks very much.
Regards,
David
