I have added some rudimentary scanning for possibly hostile macros in Microsoft Word and Excel attachments to my Procmail-based email sanitizer. This scanning is for code fragments that do things that shouldn't be in document macros rather than any particular variant of an existing virus or worm, so it should be generally effective. I'd like to have some third-party comment and beta testing before I release it. Anyone interested should send me some email at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and I'll send the html-trap.procmail filter with the added attachment scanning code. I hope to publicly release this modification tomorrow or Friday.
