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?
