Hi,

I have over a dozen samples that can make Kaspersky v5.0 on Linux hang up 
on itself. You get the log line reporting it is packed like: Packed 
PE_Patch.NSAnti

But then kavscanner will keep consuming CPU cycles and never finish the 
job. Wether or not other versions have any difficulty has not yet been 
determined.

As these samples seem to work mostly webbased it is less likely you get 
one by email. But users of this version may want to keep an eye out on 
their logs and MailScanner installation.

Hugo.

PS: I am still not finished parsing through the collection to get all of 
them.
