Once upon a time, I did the usual hg pull; hg update. At which point
Norton AV quarantined my hg repo. Since then I've told it not to scan my
source directories. You should do the same. It'll make your life
(slightly) less stressful.

Uhm.

Maybe you should tell Norton AV to ignore that specific *file*, not
the entire repo, so that if your system gets infected with a virus you
don't, you know, check it into the tree.

cheers,

Thanks. There was some discussion about it over on another newsgroup
(grc.techtalk.linux) so I also scanned to check. I'll let them know that
it's nothing to worry about.

Are the same in SeaMonkey?

Never mind... I opened up the files & checked. :-)
