Hi everyone,

Looks like some overzealous idiot at McAfee added "Trojan" signatures for 
202 files in the latest version of the Metasploit Framework. If you use 
the Framework for your job and have a McAfee support contract, *please* 
call them and let them know that their product is incorrectly tagging a 
standard security tool as a "Trojan" and that this is interfering with 
your ability to conduct business. 

Business customers in the USA can contact McAfee Technical Support by 
phone at 1-800-338-8754 or online at the following URL:
- http://www.mcafee.com/us/support/technical_support/

Home users seem to be out of luck for phone support, but can contact 
McAfee through the TS portal:

Thanks!
