Does the new beta 1.70 with interims address the issues of the No filename in disp
Content-Disposition: attachment? 

Should I be running it (i.e. more stable) than the 1.69beta?  Is the 60sec delay on 
timeout for scanning pretty normal, or should I be setting that to less.  My only 
concern is large attachment scanning.  

Thanks again for being a sounding board.

        This is the problem -- one of the virus scanners was getting "stuck", and
        not finishing its scanning (which also indirectly caused further problems,
        such as the sharing violation).

        Searching through viruses we've received, we found a W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] that
        could cause this unusual warning.  It should not normally appear for
        legitimate E-mails, however.

        The key here would be to find out which of the two scanners wasn't
        finishing, and fix it.  However, that may be difficult to do.  The next
        release of Declude Virus will log which scanner didn't finish.
