[chirp_users] Panda reported a virus in Oct 9 and Oct 13 daily builds.

[Alexander Chaihorsky]

This is the checksums:

3837aea7ad56db79770946fea53930c9995b96b3 (original checksum on your site))

753B24B1557E53CFE3CCF4B4C8ADB72C30AC1ACA (my download).

I will take a look if I can find anything dirty on my side.

Thanks, everybody.


Alex.
