ISE 9.2SP4 error

ERROR:HDLParsers - Cannot reanme dependency database for library
"work", file is "xst/work/hdpdeps.ref".  Temporary database file "C:\

any idea or solution?
hopefully the solution isnt ISE 10.1

Problem issue tracked down.

ISE 9.2SP4 is recognized AS VIRUS, so disabling antti-virus software
will let the HDL parser to pass without errors.

Why and how has xilinx managed to create software that triggers virus
on alert on task "HDL parse" ???

Those virus checkers tend to shoot from the hip.

If Xilinx would do REAL BETA testing, it could still be possible to
prevent that SP3->SP4 update causes the anti-virus alerts come!!

Should Xilinx check all their software with all the virus checkers 
available?  False alarms like that are the fault of the virus checkers, 
and are a good example of how useless most windows "security" software 
really is (hint - if your desktop anti-virus software finds something 
during on-access scanning, you've done something badly wrong).

there are not so many virus scanners actually, and yes this test could
be done.

and yes, maybe i need another anti-virus thing ;)

when the day comes, when
*) ALL FPGA vendors see Linux as PRIMARY O/S
*) ALL JTAG and ISP cable vendors support linux as PRIMARY O/S

I would say it too. but I have to wait :(

That depends on whether you count different versions - there are lots of 
people using whatever version of whatever software came with their 
machines, without updating beyond their initial "free" year.  I expect 
that most FPGA developers are going to be a bit more careful than that, 
however.  But even if Xilinx tests against every available anti-virus at 
the moment, they can't do anything about the shoddy testing done by 
anti-virus vendors when tomorrow's signature file calls Xilinx software 
a virus.  Considering how often they manage to mark critical windows 
system files as viruses, resulting in unbootable computers, I have 
little respect for their testing methods.

No, you need *no* anti-virus thing on a desktop computer.  Your email 
should be scanned by servers before your desktop sees it, you should be 
protected from worms and crackers by a hardware firewall (not a paper 
firewall running on windows), and you should stick to a browser and 
email client that won't run ActiveX and won't run programs without your 
explicit permission (i.e., anything but IE for browsing, and anything 
but OE or O for email).  Beyond that - use your common sense and 
judgement about where you wander on the net, and what attachments you open.

Follow those rules, and you can live a carefree, virus-free life even 
with windows.  No more slow virus checkers crippling your file system 
performance, no more irritating "firewall" popups asking if you really 
want to run the program you've just started, no more windows updates 
blocking you out of your computer and causing havoc with previously 
working applications.

Why wait for *everything* to work on Linux?  *Everything* doesn't work
on any operating system, including Windows.

*Most* things I need to do work fine on Linux, in fact, generally better
than they work on Windows, so I mostly use Linux.  For the few things that
don't work on Linux, I use Windows (usually in VMware).
