I have problems scanning Powerpoint documents. It takes just a few
seconds to scan the 500 MB df-file containing the document but if I
extract it it takes around 7 minutes to scan the 380 MB document.

I vaguely remember this being discussed before but couldn't find any
relevant posts when going through the archive. Is this a bug? An old
one still not fixed? Is it just Powerpoint or all Office documents?

If I scan with "--no-ole2" I'm back to a few seconds again so I guess
I can use that but what do I lose detection-wise by that?

I'm running Sendmail + MailScanner on Solaris 10 x86. MailScanner uses
clamscan (please don't debate whether clamd is better). I still have
Clam 0.88.7 because of some problems compiling 0.90.1 for Solaris. Any
fixes for this in later releases (all notes about Powerpoint in
changelog are from 2004)?
