Hello Sergius,

I would like to ask you a question.
When I try to install ANY of the plesk versions like 8.2 or 8.3 Beta on my clean server win 2003 with SOPHOS Antivirus enabled, I am getting a warning that this installer is infected and the installation will stop. Whan I turn off my SOPHOS antivirus software it works. Now, I need to know, are you implementing some kind of spyware in the installer that swsoft can monitor or something of each installation? I am getting this Security message when trying to install plesk when SOPHOS antivirus software is installed on my server:

Non of this happens when i try to install Helm, 3 or 4 or dotnetpanel or any other control panel for windows, ONLY plesk gives this secirity virus message. I am concerned about this very much. Sergius, please explain.

standing by,
henryk
