Some antivirus programs, such as McAfee and Symantec, have misidentified 
\dm\bin\cl.exe as a virus.

cl.exe is not a virus.

Symantec says they have updated their virus signatures to no longer 
label cl.exe as a virus.

McAfee may need to be disabled in order to run the scw32.exe IDDE 
because McAfee incorrectly blocks it.

This is driving me nuts, because as I enable McAfee again it does it's scan and
removes it arrrgghhh!!
