    Heuristics.Broken.Executable

    Hi all,

    I recently did scan with KlamAV and picked up 6 problems. They were listed as Heuristics.Broken.Executable and found in /media/CEFCB69...

    I was able to quarantine 3, but the other 3 remained 'loose'.

    I've since reformatted the computer. But I was just wondering if anyone knew what these were, or if I should take any extra steps to clear things up.


    Thanks!

    Hi. I also got many Heuristics.Broken.Executable warnings with klamav. They were mainly for WINE Windows game executables.
