Right you are, I think......
I have had a look at the clamav.conf file and the man page clamav.conf.5
and the only thing I can see that might be it is "ArchiveMaxFileSize SIZE"
this defaults to 10mb. Does this mean that if a file is over 10mb it won't
be scanned or that MS will mark it as an oversized zip?

Or.... am I even looking at the right option, I am still getting more
"Denial of Service attack in message!" messages then I should be.
