A little after the fact, this but never mind :-) I did find out that
Inocluate users need to have the most up-to-date version of the
program (not just the virus files, though I can't find an 'upgrade'
option and don't really want to download the whole thing again,
*sigh*)

Why they can't tell one when a new version comes out, I'm not
sure...

Oh you mean McAfee finally figured it out? Symantec hs had a warning since Aprill 11. When I got infected McAfee didn't even detect it.
