[Mimedefang] New .zip virus?

[Elders Real Estate Ballina]

Freshclam has been updating regularly. ( latest definitions )   MD & ClamAV 
had been successfully blocking attachments ..

I had one slip through which I thought was odd.  I would have thought MD 
would of blocked the .zip as it's set in the config to block all 
zips.  First time I've had MD fail on blocking the zip attachments.

Not sure why this occurred... I tried forwarding it to a local test 
account, it picked up the virus and blocked the sending of it.  So it was 
working as it should, yet the zip managed to find its way into my inbox.

I'll have a closer look later to see if there's something I've missed..  I 
thought MD died but after checking the log , MD passed it through.

Thanks
Mat
