Allow Password-Protected Archives

[Darrin Powell]

Ahh should have read the message closer :). I am using Sophos AV only. I
am not sure what type of file eda10kp.inp is. I received another one
today for an .xls file

At Tue May  2 15:44:32 2006 the virus scanner said:
   Password protected file rand.zip/rand.xls

Not sure I have seen this in the past. What file would I need to change
with Sophos.


Thanks
