OK, in that case it isn't an issue with the eicar inline file; it sounds 
like there is simply a problem detecting any viruses.  That would make 
sense if you are running a virus scanner that is interfering with Declude 
(if the F-Prot.exe file reports no virus, the E-mail will get delivered 
along with the attachment that contains the virus).

Here, we see that F-Prot has reported that it found no viruses.  But:

>D:\IMAIL\spool\D44660b8.vir\0.com: 5.

Here, Windows reported that Declude doesn't have access to delete the 0.com 
file (the one with the eicar.com file in it).

Do you have an on-access virus scanner running?  If so, you should disable 
it (or set it not to scan the subdirectories off of \IMail\spool).

It the SCANFILE option all on one line (starting with "SCANFILE" and ending 
with "/REPORT=report.txt")?  If it is on two separate lines (as it appears 
in the E-mail, although that may be due to formatting), the "/DUMB" will 
not get sent to F-Prot.

Is only the inline version of the eicar.com file not getting caught, or are 
there other ones that are not getting caught?

The next step would be to send the inline version of the eicar.com file 
again, this time using the Declude debug mode.  To do this, change the 
"LOGLEVEL LOW" line in \IMail\Declude\virus.cfg to "LOGLEVEL DEBUG".  Then, 
send the inline eicar.com file through again, and then switch back to 
"LOGLEVEL LOW".  You can then E-mail me the \IMail\Declude\vir.log file 
(or, if you cut out just the part for that one E-mail, you can post it here 
if you prefer), and I can take a look at it to see what the problem may be.

Yes, it should be caught (all the encoding methods used on that page should 
be caught).

That ones uses a ".zl6" extension, which may be the problem.  If you are 
using F-Prot, you need to have " /DUMB" on the SCANFILE line in the 
virus.cfg file; if using McAfee, you should have " /ALL" on that 
line.  That will ensure that all files are scanned, regardless of the 
extension.

If that doesn't take care of the problem, please let me know.  Thanks.
