AW: Error with RAR-Files

[Julian Field]

Patch for SweepViruses.pm is attached.

It still complains about some lines, but I can't make it take into account
every type of irrelevant output line from every possible archive unpacker
unfortunately.
But it detects the virus just fine.

This will be included in the next release, once you have agreed it works okay.
