There is a test tool at http://tools.declude.com/ under the "Virus Test" heading. There are a bizillioin options for sending the virus. The only tests that really count are the "Plain base64 MIME encoded" and "Zip file". Clam should detect those. The rest appear to be mostly marketing fluff; don't be too concerned if clam doesn't detect them. -- Noel Jones _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
