Further to this - I've installed 4.50.9 on the Fort Systems test box but
I do not have any examples of Worm.VB-8 to test it with.

Please send your examples of this virus to virustest at fsg.com (DO NOT
send them to the list!!).

You may then log-in to MailWatch on this system at
http://mail.fsg.com/mailscanner and use the username 'virustest at fsg.com'
with a password of 'guest' to see the messages being received.

The system runs ClamAV 0.88 with Mail::ClamAV 0.17 and BitDefender -
I've also just manually run the virus scanner update.

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,
Steve.
