Just curious, but how did you go about integrating it into your filter
for your tests?
Also, after going through the docs a little, it looks like the virus
definition file can easily be updated, but the method of gathering the
data to add to that file is somewhat cumbersome..
I would think that the author would need to make it easier to download
the latest signatures.txt file separate from the distribution in order
to make it more workable..
