No problem.  See, I can do praise too.  :-)

I even did a scan of my usual drive that is susceptible to showing false 
positives and it all completed without unwanted reports.

A relief, a surprise, and a happy chap (for today) ;-)

So, @clamwin users:  no problems, go for it.  And those non-clamwin 
users that have problems., try CLAMWIN!!  :-D
