I'm seeing some strange things with the new F-Prot.

I sent a message containing a password protected zip virus to myself.
Trend and ClamAV both found the virus (with different names) and
MailScanner said there was a virus in the zip file.  However, F-Prot only
warned that it contained a dangerous .exe file.

I'm not sure that F-Prot would have stopped the zip file if it had of been
the only protection???
