I have a question how extracting the new narvog/mydoom virus works. It comes
in as a .zip file which I thought would be contained in the zip program.
Does it in some way bypass the zip app or does the zip app let it out of the
sandbox? None of the sites have een very forthcoming on this, and it seems
to show that even zips no longer offer us any assurance of protection.
