Hi saleem,

This is typical of the Winworld we live in. The bioses of most PCs do not
make an assumption that Linux would be installed and most other virus
software programs assume the same. They go by the theory that ANYTHING put
in the MBR is a virus if it wasn't put there by as M$ product.

But if you follow this definition of a virus, it is detecting it right.

Definition - Virus - Any program(s) that make WinXX less appealing to use.

Have fun,
--
