was NOT able to detect the passworded ZIP viruses, resulting
in those FALSE NEGATIVEs, while Softlabs AntiVirus *did* detect and
isolate them.

it seems some still don't understand me. As explained before, I have
written the procmail AV filter for use, of course, on Unix, in the
purpose to isolate viruses for windows. I have only *tested* how a
common AV program would be in sync to the results my Unix tool gave.
Of course, this can only be done on the target platform, so on
Windows.

And, what is intersting for me is, that the Windows AV program did NOT
find the viruses my tool DID on Unix, OK?

Uhm, if they were encrypted zipfiles, how'd you pull off that trick?  Or is
it static?

Why not just having a look inside it? All the files can be browsed
directly online.
