Actually it's not, it's the clam output parser within MS saying it doesn't
recognize the output line from the call. It's not anything to worry about as
anything outside the narrow regex(s) used within the parser generate this
message. The module wasn't/isn't written to accommodate the external RAR
output. It will, however, catch the virus/OK output correctly. If he asks on
the clam list they won't have a clue as to what he is talking about. Seems
Julian did something about this on one of the latest releases?
