No worries.  

McAfee definition file 4.0.4017 reports netbus, 4.0.4019 does not.  Adobe
says that this is a false positive, and has caused some [unmonitored by
Adobe] list hysteria.  The Acrobat 4.0 beta release was tested with
4.0.4014, which reported Actobat 4.0 beta clear of viruses.

                I agree this would be reprehensible

                I have visited their web site

                http://www.adobe.com/newsfeatures/tryadobe/main.html

                or is it the reader?

                http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html

                exactly which software package are you refering to?
