For a server, but you can see the problems it can create. My advice would be to quarantine files and not delete until you are sure they are infected. This way if it is a mistake you can replace the file, incidentally quarantined files are completely safe.

If you come across FP, best thing is to report to the program makers, that way they can get the problem fixed, helping them, you and others users - either do this by email or use their forums (if they have one).

Yep, pretty quick response too, they would have had to re-test and then release the update, I'm impressed :)
