Default Help with a McAfee interference problem


Hello People;

I am a user of the programmer's text editor TSE, formerly
called Qedit.

The developer (Sammy Mitchell) has had problems with his
recent compiles, because the McAfee virus scanner seems to
think the code includes a virus and slows loading to a
crawl.

Attempts to contact McAfee for help have been made in vain.
Can anyone here provide either:

- suggestions on steps to follow to isolate the problem so
it can be corrected.

or tell me

- where to go to find out how to correct this problem.


Cordially;

Send an email to: and

Attach the file(s) in a password protected ZIP file and set the password to; infected
{ password = infected }

In the body of the email explain the problem, what McAfee is flagging this file as and
discuss the subject of it being a False Positive declaration and why.
