Was the original message sent to the mailing list? If so, I missed it.

Anyway, I had the same problem with an old version of McAfee (and reported 
it to the list a couple of weeks ago), but downloading a new engine + 
dat-files made the problem go away. I don't have it installed anymore (it 
was a "cinderella trial version"), so I do not know if it had heuristic 
scanning turned off - but I guess not..

Did the OP tell which version of McAfee (s)he was using?
