   The softpedia site seems quite big and legitimate. It's probably their   
   business model to attract people and show them their adverts. So they can't   
   afford it to be associated with malware...

    MvdV> Yeah right. How does one test FidoNet software without a FidoNet setup?   
      
   Yeah, that triggerd my bullshit detector too. ;) It's a "nicely" formulated   
   standard text. ;)   
      
   It probably just means they used 2 or more (= several) virus scanners to   
   detect if the exe file is clean...   
      
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
