Does Windows XP Ultimate have viruses, my AV just flagged a couple of files?
No. Windows XP does not have any viruses of any kind. In fact each release is carefully checked before uploading. If your Anti-Virus is flagging any file as a virus, it is a False Alert. Cross-Check with other anti-virus and update your virus definition database. Windows XP Ultimate Edition has all it’s custom configuration and repair tool files compiled with programming tools. As some viruses are also made with these same programming tools, some of these Windows XP Ultimate’s configuration files may be mistakenly flagged as viruses(False Positives). Normaly AV companies will take this into account and most likely following virus definitions will no longer trigger the False Positives. Also feel free to send any flagged file to any AV company for analisys. But then again, make sure you are downloading from the official Release Sites and Uploaders.
