Hi,
Sorry for he confusion.  The virus I'm referring to is found in a CPAN
module archive Mail-ClamAV-0.01.tgz < Mail-ClamAV-0.05.tgz
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/S/SA/SABECK/

The change log in 0.05 mentions that the "real" virus was replaced by the
ecair virus signature.  A virus scan of the file virus.eml will show up
positive.

I understand the chances of someone on a windows machine downloading the
old version of the file, unarchiving it, and then opening the virus.eml and
executing the update.exe attachment is pretty minuet.  This is really more
for documentation purposes, and I just wanted to verify if the Swen virus
contained within the email was a wild and unmodified one.


If this is the wrong list to post this or these CPAN modules have nothing
to do with the clamav project I apologize for the interruption.

Thanks for your help.

Ted
