... that's reasonable, John.

How does it work up to now?  If a vulnerability and a virus are
detected, which gets reported?

I agree with Darrell. If it contains a virus, I want it to be marked as
a virus. If it does not contain a virus, then if it contains a
vulnerability or banned extension then mark as such.

An example is that some Sober viruses also contain vulnerability. Well,
I want it labeled as a virus not vulnerability.
