i mean, i think norton found the text "dcc send script.ini" in your script and thought it was the script.ini virus, norton doesn't only pick up filenames it picks up strings inside them

Hey guys

I run Norton AntiVirus with Opera. I've set Opera to cache pages to my HDD - as it was caching this very page, Norton went crazy, yeahp: "IRC.Family.Gen" detected. I believe tidy trax is correct - its definitely got something to do with that line.

Try and use a different filename for that ini file. Experiment and see what Norton likes.
