I have noticed that too.  We exclude the extension of .pif and .scr in both
Declude and as a filter on Imail and viruses with the extensions, when not
caught by declude, still come in.  The only thing that I see is that the
virus is coming in as base 64 encodeded so the file names don't seem to
appear in the message.  Any way of getting around that.

Perhaps, but one of our users received a message with an attachment whose
extension (.scr) we exclude.

Manually update your definitions.  Most all the A/V vendors now identify
these as the new MyDoom variant, introduced yesterday.

: Hey There,
:
:   Starting last night I received a few e-mail that came form
: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] with zip file attachments.
: Within those attachments are .scr and .htm.exe files.  Our SAVSMTP server
: has the latest Symantec Definitions on them and it detected nothing.  I
then
: scanned the attachments with McAfee's latest definitions, nothing.  I then
: did an online scan with Trend Micro - nothing.  Are these new or are these
: just so mangled that they aren't being detected?  I have since sent them
to
: Symantec for review, but it seems a bit odd that I would get so many and
the
: three different AV companies would not be able to detect them.  These are
: not password protected zip files.  For the time being I just stopped
: accepting .zip attachments.
:
: Any ideas?
