We are using uvscan 4.3.20 on solaris.  How do you force it to scan 
password protected files?
I've seen others report that they are catching the Bagle.F virus with 
uvscan, but our implementation
is not catching the virus because the file is password protected.  When 
running uvscan from the
command line, we get the following when attempting to scan the zip file.

cloak# uvscan --noboot --secure --allole /temp/TextDocument.zip
/temp/TextDocument.zip/LPVDFWJ.SCR
        is password-protected.

Thanks,
John
