What is happening is that the virus checker is matching the WinVNC.exe
executable against a heuristic for the types of program that are likely to
be backdoor viruses. This means that it thinks the executable contains a
backdoor-type virus, even though it doesn't.
The quick-fix is to disable heuristic virus detection. A better fix is to
tell McAfee, so they can update their heuristic.
