I realize this generally does mean it's corrupt -- but you're missing the "scary" part. If I scan the file that came in with the same install of F-Prot, (from the mail server), it catches it as Netsky.

Running F-Prot, Mcafee and now AVG.

The "Virus Free" message means that none of the virus scanners detected a virus.


Most likely, these are corrupt, non-viable variants. With Netsky, we've seen a version in .ZIP files that were corrupt (yet about the same size as normal), so that it would not be possible to extract the virus out of the .ZIP file.
