All of a sudden McAfee today scans mpeg2repair.exe as Generic.dx

9/13/2008 5:31:02 PM Deleted F:\tools\mpeg2repair\mpeg2repair.exe Generic.dx

Yes also tried to redownload from source:
http://homepages.roadrunner.com/mwilczyn/mpeg2repair/

Any other tool that can check a .ts for errors?

(mod: please put this in a proper thread if this is not it)

"Generic.dx" sounds to me like some borked heuristic failed, so most likely it's a false positive. I often get "Generic" or "Packed" hits for my very own software :rolleyes:

Does McAfee have an exclude list you can use to have it ignore known false positives?

I am still using Enterprise 7.1 version, but thanks for the suggestion, that seems to work:
