Hello,

we got reports that several emails carrying the Mytob virus
(W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] as reported by F-Prot) slipped through our ClamAV
installation (0.87.1, latest virus database 34/1197). We managed to
get a copy of an infected message and submitted it to the ClamAV Virus
Database where it was recognised as Broken.Executable.

We are using the default values, more or less, for the scanning
options in our clamav-milter/clamd installation and thus
DetectBrokenExecutables was disabled by default.

Any opinions regarding the DetectBrokenExecutables option? Could we or
should we enable it? And if so, why is it disabled by default?

The infected message can be found at: http://noc.ntua.gr/~christia/tmp/message

Regards,
Panagiotis
