Does anyone else have this problem?

McAfee just released their new DAT file and it recognises Spotify as a virus. What an arse!

Until Spotify or McAfee sort themselves out, there's no more Spotify at work and my iPod is hopelessly out-of-date with it's music.... grumpy

There's also an interesting virus scanner analysis website where it's reporting that 6 virus scanners are showing Spotify.exe as a virus.

Anyone else with the same problem?

Yup, same problem here. We use McAfee in the office, but AVG at home so I'm sure it'll be fine there.
