I am running in a linux box, as far as I know there is no antivirus running in
linux ;-))

The strange thing is that I downloaded the version 98.1p7, and during the
installation process the same message of glob failed appeared, but when I run
latex2html over the same latex file the output was nice and everything looks
pretty nice, except for some minor problems with the proof environment. For the
moment I guess that I'll try to start to work with this latex2html version
