Virus in Delphi 7

Question

When i compile a new project in Delphi 7 IDE , the MCafee identifies it as Virus and deletes it .

The virus identified as Generic.dx!gmk and is deleted by the antivi

Answer 1

It might a false positive.

One of our new developers (who is also new to Delphi) was experiencing the same thing. He renamed his "test" project and forms from the default and it stopped being picked up.

I'm guessing somebody did write a virus/trojan in Delphi using the default project and form name and the "pattern" they created made it into the AV databases.
