Thanks for the suggestions.
I am unable to upload the file, either through e-mail or through the
uploader on the sites you've suggested.
It may be a false alarm, since my system isn't exhibiting any bizarre
behavior that one might expect if infected, but the fact that my AV
software thinks otherwise is cause for concern.
Curious that I cannot attach this file to an e-mail. I get an error
message I've never seen before, and I've sent other files in the past
without error.
Has anyone experienced anything like this before?
