Question:
False-positive virus detection on V6.0 SDKs for Java

Answer:
When installing a V6.0 SDK for Java on a PC which has Norton Antivirus running you may be warned that the file MATH.DLL is infected by the BackDoor-HQ.dr.dll virus. This warning is a false-positive and seems to only occur with one particular set of virus definitions. The newest virus definitions do not give a warning. This warning can be ignored - all our SDKs are virus scanned before we ship them and this file has been verified as clean.
