A quick question for people. The IT depeartment of the univesrity I used to
work out just sent out a note about its virus scanner Macafee detecting a
phishing attack. I use Clamav and F-Prot onmy mail gateways and see plenty
of detections of phshing attacks from clamav, but none from fprot. If you
use a different virus scanner can you let me know if it detects phishing
attacks. Feel free to email me personally and I'll summarize to the list.
Thanks
Alisdair
