Have been using LSC to develop some code. At some point our Mac II in the
lab, that is used by many people, contracted the NVIR virus. Apparently the
virus was in the computer for several days before it was discovered. In that
time I had run and built my application many times. After it was discovered
using Interferon, we used Repair to rid the system of the virus - or so I
thought.
        Now for the problem, for some reason when I run Virex on the system
it tells me that there is a non-infectious NVIR stub in my built application.
It does not detect it in any of the files used to make the application (i.e.
the LSC compiler, the project file, the external resource file or any where
else on the system.) If I run Virex to repair the built application it
removes the NVIR stub. But every time I rebuild the program, the stub
reappears. I have tried creating the project from scratch by deleting the old
project file, creating a new project, and reloading all the libraries and
source code to no avail.
        The program certainly can not ship with this stub in it and there is
the possibility that when it is distributed I may forget to run Virex to
remove this stub. Is there any way to get rid of it once and for all?
