It will work fine for all viruses that don't hide in new ways: #The scan engine has been improved. The internal mail scanner now #supports multipart/partial messages, and support for decoding #non-standard mail files was greatly enhanced. clamav-milter by default #uses libclamav and scans emails itself without the use of clamd. #libclamav can now extract RFC2397 encoded data within HTML documents, #block zip archives with modified information in local header, and scan #HQX files. PE file structure rebuilding from compressed executables was #improved too. So, if you are worried about newer threats, upgrade. -- Daniel J McDonald, CCIE # 2495, CNX Austin Energy [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
