Subject: [Rubyinstaller-users] Virus or false alarm?
Message-ID: <20060607040146.x0daiw06808w00os@webmail.tuffmail.net>

Hello,

I've been running Installer Version 184-16-RC2 for almost a month now. 
I just updated my Windows Live OneCare antivirus definitions and now 
WLOC is complaining that uninstall.exe is infected with 
TrojanDownloader:Win32/Agent!DE3E .

Is this a known false-positive, or should I be worried? I'm not trying 
to uninstall Ruby, but anytime a process gets file information for that 
folder's contents, I get a virus warning as my foreground window.

The MD5 of my uninstall.exe is D41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E . Is 
this the proper checksum? Or did a virus actually infect my uninstaller?

I saw nothing on the wiki regarding this, and I couldn't find a good 
channel on freenode to ask.

Thanks,

--Matt

My checksum is for the uninstall.exe is 45bd1df7777952903d912b7bae251021, so
I think there is something wrong with yours. I have attached my copy of the
uninstaller so that you can replace yours. I had to rename the extension
from exe to dat because gmail wouldn't let me attach an exe file.

Subject: [Rubyinstaller-users] gem install failure: Zlib::buffer
Message-ID: <8e88f4b10606160715o72389584g5eed2f3b05be4fe0@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
I am getting a Zlib buffer (Zlib::BUFError) error when trying to
install rspec on a freshly installed Ruby in C:\Ruby.

ruby -e "require 'zlib'; p Zlib::ZLIB_VERSION" returns 1.2.3
os: windows2000
ruby:184-17
gem: 0.8.11

I am new to ruby - there was also a support request logged by another
user. on 6 june '06

Your advice will be much appreciated.

TIA
