Hi, this question may be a bit off-topic but I do not know where to
ask and you've all been so helpful with my questions about the program
itself.  To distribute the program I zip up the Perl source file with
some other text files by first using tar -cf filename.tar *, then gzip
filename.tar, then renaming filename.tar.gz to filename.tgz.  I put
that on my web site and there have been complaints that their virus
checking software flags it as containing a virus.

I am working on a non-intel Mac so there is little chance of a real
virus, plus its only text files and i see no special characters in the
text files.  Besides, both of my virus checkers find no viruses, so I
think I am virus-free.  Did changing the filename mess up a checksum
or something?  How do I end up with a *.tgz extension in a more kosher
way?

Thanks in advance for your help!
