Our Qmail-Scanner (1.20) with F-Secure (4.52) seems unable to catch emails with this virus. The qmail-queue.log shows and error that F-Secure was unable to open a password protected zip file. However, the email is then passed as clear. Have we configured something wrong or is it F-Secure? Norton AV catches the virus just fine at our PC's.

I've seen similar behavior on our gateway. We scan with both F-prot and F-secure, and F-prot marks the file as 'could be a security risk'. (the clear is just a textfile you can edit, so you can't rely on that text).

But after unpacking the zip file, it says, infected. I've filtered the bagle.J with the 'virus subject' instead in quarantine-attachments.txt, just to stop most of the automated requests until tomorrow where I'll look for an extra scannerengine. I will report back if another linux AV-scanning engine catches it. (unless others beat me too it)

Our client's all have e-trust, form CA, and they catch it too, like your Norton.

Sincerely
Max
