    Visual Studio.net question

    I have just installed MSVS.net 2003 Enterprise Architect which I got from my University as a student copy. Whenever I attempt to create a new project Mcafee virus scanner warns me that it is running a suspicious script. Is this normal? If i click block it shuts down VS. if i allow it to run it works fine. Anby information would be great.

    This may be in the wrong forum, if so I apologies. Thanks in advance.

    Yes, it is a wrong forum - it belongs at the tech board. Anyways, I'm not sure why McAfee is picking it up - Norton doesn't say anything. I think you should just go ahead and unblock it. I've never used McAfee, but it should give you some more details about the problem, so maybe look into that.

    You need to add this program to the ignore list in the settings. Your creating a txt file with the ability to run/manipulate things in the system, and mcaffre dont like it.
