Re: NAV deletes cygwin1.dll

[Peter Buckley <peter dot buckley at cportcorp dot com>]

The latest virus def from NAV should fix this. My virus definition file 
is version 40213av dated 2/13/02. Read the mailing list lately, a thread 
called "anybody else also infected" from yesterday and today discusses 
this in depth. If you can, it might be good to setup your NAV to 
"quarantine" instead of "delete" if it can't clean the virus.

HTH,
Peter
