Anyways the facts remain, MBL can send incomplete files because the http server does not report Content-Length (they don't seem to serve static files which is just stupid). Also their signature backend could have any number of problems if they can't even get that right. I've been personally filtering out any signatures less than 7 chars for a long time. _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
