I have email messages that are being detected as Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd

submit a sample because its already detected.

If someone wants a few sample email messages, let me know where to send
them.




I might be way off base here, but isnt the virus you are talking about a "Zipped" Bagel generation virus? Which would explain why its being detected as Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd right?

OK - the virus was NOT detected by uvscan, AGV or Sophos but WAS detected by clamav - a good thing. This is why I use clamav on several mail server in conjunction with a commercial scanner. This e-Mail virus WAS a password protected zip file but when unzipped, the files were detected as the Bagle.AF virus by all scanners including clamav. My only reason for sending the original post was to see if 'Maybe' the virus programmers wanted a sample of this message because some were detected as Bagel.AF but not all. But then again, maybe it is being detected correctly?
