Question I have received a warning from my virus scanner that the XcAuctionPro ZIP contains a virus! How can that happen?
Answer Starting with version 2.0.5 of XcAuction Pro, some virus scanners may report a message that the XcAuction Pro ZIP file may be infected with a scripting virus. This warning or alert is wrong. XcAuction Pro contains some Windows Scripting Host files (the WSH files) that allow you to automate certain administrative functions on your site. In their desire to protect your system from scripting virus', they are just reporting that any WSH file was present in the ZIP file.

XCENT scans all distributions for virus' before the files are made available.
