The Nigerian stuff is spam and not a virus. You could class the people who send them as a virus though. But no software could check for that.

Soliciting someone to send you a virus is probably never a good idea. Why not go to one of the antivirus sites and download one of the test signatures. Or better yet, simply change the filename on any small binary to your_document.pif, then compose a message with Subject "Re: Your application" , Body "Please see the attached file" and the attachment and sent it to your email address. If it gets routed into your virus directory as Sobig, then it is working. Please do NOT send such a message to anyone else, even if it doesn't contain the actual virus. The FBI has been getting fairly trigger happy on hackers these days. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer -+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Business Computer Projects - Disclaimer -+-+-+-+-+-+-+- This message, and any associated attachment is confidential.
