Julian

initial test using the tar version on FreeBSD look good.

However I note that ClamAV just blocked a passwd protects zip Bagle that
MS did nothing about.

I've got the default

Allow Password-Protected Archives = no

set, and installed the perl zip module so I'm not sure what happened there..

looking at that message, the zip file is part of a mailing list digest
form, rather than an list individual message style.....

PS - way top go Clam, they've beaten the commercial scanners again being
the first (?) to scan inside passwd protected xzip files...
