It is a false alarm by TBAV caused by code in Turbo Copy which happens to have similar sequences than the 7Dos virus signature. We have not (yet?) heard from the TBAV authors. Even if this is unfair to the author, I'll wait and see what develops before making Turbo Copy available again. This is because I wish to avoid consternation and virus enquiries from the users.
