you have in the /etc/sophie.savi you sent:

NOTICE           : Option 'Mime' type '3' set to '0'

in this case sophie didn't detect at least W32/Magistr-A:

NOTICE           : Scanning file '/.../a9'
NOTICE           : pSAVI cleaned up and released/terminated
NOTICE           : SAVI cleaned up and terminated

while sweep did it:

# sweep -mime /export/home/prac/alexrat/a9
SWEEP virus detection utility
Version 3.78, February 2004 [Solaris/SPARC]
>>> Virus 'W32/Magistr-A' found in file /.../a9/LOADWB.EXE

and sophie with 'Mime' set to'1' did it too:

NOTICE           : Scanning file '/.../a9'
WARNING          : Scan result => '/.../a9' infected with virus
'W32/Magistr-A'
NOTICE           : pSAVI cleaned up and released/terminated

what about 'Mime' set to '0' in your config file? looks like it's not
sufficient...
