It's glitch that proofs anti viruses use white-listing.
That's not a mistake. The legitimate files do something that would be suspicious
in an imported file so they check for it. If it's the legitimate file, they
ignore it.
But that's guesswork.
I can't run the modern AVG antivirus because it quarantines some .dll components
of the old Cygwin version I use, which defeats the whole point of the computer.
That needs whitelisting.
