Clamav doesn't find viruses in passworded zip archives. Clamav just have in its virus database 2 special signatures, that treat _all_ passworded zip archives as viruses. No matter what they contain. But AFAIK, Kaspersky AntiVirus can crack a password on zip archive in some special circumstances. I have a program, that can do the same, but Tomasz Kojm is not interested in it. ---------- Tomasz Klim, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.euroneto.pl Phone: +48 61 8433535 Fax: +48 61 8434455 Euronet Sp. z o.o., Dabrowskiego 81/85, 60-529 Poznan, Poland ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
