Known issue. :( I posted on it last year with no particular resolution. As well as Office formats it appears to afflict large XML files too. e.g. http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20051217.152437.bcbbbbf5.en.html http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20050922.133756.641817a2.en.html "Your disk is slow" or "don't scan large files" is a common response. If you can provide a sample file to Trog to help find out what the real issue is that would be great. -- des -- http://frommars.org/ _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
