This is not a Virus, but a false positive that has affected Email Servers that are running an outdated version of ClamAV antivirus server software.

Most ISPs should have fixed it by now and the problem has gone away.

Hi Cris,

I'm sorry for the extremely late reply.

I haven't been able to find anything about this detection, other than what Kimmono said above.

Have you have any other problems that might be related to this? If you didn't, then it might just have been a wrong detection from ClamAV's part.
