Dear TeXworks team,
I would like to ask for your advice concerning the following security
issue.
Yesterday I installed TeXLive 2009 for Windows XP via internet (using
install-tl.zip from http://www.tug.org/texlive/acquire-netinstall.html)
and thus came into contact with TeXworks for the first time.
Unfortunately, my "Sophos" antivirus software claims that three files
are virus/spyware of a category called "Mal/Dorf-I" (cf.
http://www.sophos.com/security/analyses/viruses-and-spyware/maldorfi.html).
The "suspicious" MS DOS-exe-files have been put under quarantine by Sophos.
These files appear to be last modified on 2010/02/28. Are these
original TeXworks files? (I include their MD5-hash code, see below).
texlive\2009\bin\win32
\dviout.exe (MD5-hash d132caed244851b1a944221921611235)
\psv.exe (MD5-hash 4ea3886315f590856e6d921c54aca0f2)
\texworks.exe (MD5-hash e9c1687a5375f6ad5b5e76172c46bf37)
I would appreciate any kind of advice or assistance. Thank you very much.
Best regards
Jens Heber
