Anti-virus software such as clamassassin is packaged in Debian and the virus
descriptors may appear to other software as viruses. I've not looked at
which packages might be on those DVDs but I think it's highly likely that
it is the case that these are false positives triggered by other anti-virus
descriptors.

Thanks,
Iain.
