Hello Flemion, Steps adopted
(1) Install antivirus software on the dspace submission server. Here we are using Virus scan enterprise 8.5 (on-access enabled). (2) Get the EICAR test virus file for submission http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm (3) The dspace upload interface gives an error while trying to upload infected files and the file is moved to c:\quarantine folder and named as eicar_com.zip.vir. A path reference is also indicated in the infected.log file. (4) In virus scan enterprise 8.5, to enable virus scan on 2nd level zip files, enable this feature at properties - All processes - advanced tab. I have tested this only on windows 2003 server since here we have acute shortage of UNIX machines. Thanks Stuart Lewis (Aberystwyth University) for extending your help when we had the same issue sometime back. Cheers!
