Subject: [Declude.Virus] Question: Do the new zip commands reject the
file extension and not pass the file to the virus scanner


Running 1.78i8 on Declude Virus Pro.

Have both the BANEXT EZIP and BANEZIPEXTS ON in virus.cfg

Question:

Currently does the BANEXT EZIP and BANEZIPEXTS ON commands block the mail
based on the file extension and not scan the email with the configured virus
scanner (See snippet #1 below) i.e. the virus scanner is not called or
doesn't appear to be?

When checking the file which was banned it does contain a virus (Bagle/h
pwd) which was being detected fine prior to the new zip features (see
snippet #2)?

Issue: Currently the files which should be caught by the virus scanner are
not being caught by the scanner BUT being rejected due to the file extension
which than generates the bannotify.eml (as you can see from below we now
have that turned off right now).  Previously (prior to the new zip features)
banned extensions (see snippet #3) would appear to be scanned by the scanner
and if a virus was found it would not generate the bannotify.eml.

Subject: [Declude.Virus] Summary of new options

With the latest interim release, you can use:

BANEXT EZIP - This line will ban all .ZIP files with an
encrypted file in them
BANZIPEXTS ON   - This line (Pro version only) will ban all file extensions
listed in BANEXT lines, if they appear in non-encrypted .ZIP files
BANEZIPEXTS ON  - This line (Pro version only) will ban all file extensions
listed in BANEXT lines, if they appear in encrypted .ZIP files

Also, the latest interim (with the Pro version only) will detect bogus
.BAT/.COM/.PIF/.SCR files (automatically as vulnerabilities, with no need
for config file entries).

If you are having any troubles with these, please re-read the information
on them, and then be very clear what is happening.  There are a lot of
possibilities here.  You'll need to specify [1] Whether you are using
BANZIPEXTS ON or BANEZIPEXTS ON (or the not-recommended-but-still-useful
BANEXT EZIP), [2] Whether you have a BANEXT line to block the appropriate
file (BANEXT com, for example), [3] What type of file you are sending
through (.com? .com within a .zip?), [4] If it is a .ZIP file, is the file
inside it

based on the file extension and not scan the email with the configured virus
scanner (See snippet #1 below) i.e. the virus scanner is not called or
doesn't appear to be?
The virus scanner will be called with the latest interim release.  The 
older 1.78i8 would prevent the virus scanner from being run in some cases.
