MailScanner is not finding your scanner because it not in the %Scanners
array in SweepViruses.pm. You have to add it there with the appropriate
settings.

Granted this is all very arcane and not really amenable to adding your
own. It seems really wrong to even have something like
virus.scanners.conf when you have to hack the code anyway,  but
unfortunately, that's the way it currently is.
