From the message that's being displayed, it seems that Norton is
catching the virus on a file in

	C:\home\.sylpheed\tmp\tmp.0000001f

so if it's getting caught in that directory, I would think *that's* what
I have to exclude.

However, I *can't* exclude that because the stupid Norton software won't
let me select a directory that starts with "."  It simply doesn't
display those directories.

Argh!


Thanks!
