i copied the exe file out of the zip file and ran the uvscan but nevertheless i was unsuccessful :-(
And you are unhappy ???
yes, i AM unhappy! for a mailserver virus scanning it's so nice, to let viruses go through...
My father has a saying:
"Don't go looking for trouble, it will find you soon enough."
Unless you have a test environment that is off the web, please don't go opening up stange files...
Indeed.
Looking at this again, you probably want to test using the eicar test file, http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm. It's a harmless text file that all AV software detecta as a virus.
No I won't send it to you - my mail server probably wouldn't let it through!
i know this virus. i fact, my virus scan detect all viruses except this one which is in a password protected zip file. NAI's product based on microsoft servers can detect him. I try to ask NAI directly, as i read here...
Tom.
thanks, Andrew
