We had a similar problem over here on this machine after yesterday's update.
It only occurred once or twice though, although we've been seeing a few
emails come in that generate virus warnings as well since then. I'll be
keeping an eye on it for the moment.

I have Avast free anti virus on a computer and have seen what appears to be
some false positive trojan horse hits. Has any other Avast users seen this?
