Re: Bad viruses?

David, looks like the final results of the file you submitted to ClamAV
turned out to be the 
Worm.VB-8 virus as I suspected. ClamAV added detection for that virus in the
Jan 18, 2006 update
http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20060118.170112.26933418.en.html. 

The following information has been pulled from my resources, mostly McAfee's
AVERT site http://vil.nai.com/vil (which incidently, indicates that McAfee
customers have been protected from this worm since 5/28/2003).
