Possible malware in one of your download packages



Hi


I got a malware report on a Windows machine from a MS Security Essentials scan (full scan) which picked up files which appear to have come from a download of Debian 32 bit DVD which I took from here about a month ago (http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/5.0.6/i386/iso-dvd/)


I am aware that anti-malware software sometimes makes false positive reports.


The report is listed below for your information (copy and paste from MS SE).   The security software destroyed the entire file in the process automatically.


Regards
