Filenames would be better. I wrote a rule a couple of weeks ago for the filenames for 
someone.. here it is:

-----
This really isn't the job of SA - you should have antivirus integrated with your MTA 
(if your situation allows). This isn't tested,
+but based on my latest Sobig catch, this *should* work:

rawbody SOBIG_VIRUS
+/^\tfilename=\"(?:movie0045\.pif|wicked_scr\.scr|application\.pif|document_9446\.pif|details\.pif|your_details\.pif|thank_you\.pif|
+document_all\.pif|your_document\.pif)\"$/

BAD IDEA. MailScanner is a legitimate product and you'd be 
blocking/rejecting/mis-classifying a LOT of legitimate mail.


FYI - Sobig.F is now EOL. The only systems still sending it out have an incorrectly 
set date.
