Hello users,

On my home network, all http traffic is transparently passed through
DansGuardian, which uses clamd to scan any downloads for viruses.
I am running ClamAv CVS on the home router, which is just a FreeBSD
box giving "controlled" access to all the services my neighbours would
ever want to use. Such controls involve virus scanning and content
filtering.

Today, I received the following notification after clamd decided that
a download was a Broken Executable. This download happens to be from
Microshit servers, yes?

I manually downloaded the file in question and as much as I can attest,
it is not broken. It ran without any problem and it's a legit M$ file.

So I am thinking here is a case of an FP from clamd. Ideas??
