There are more virii that go undetected. I haven't tried them all :-)
but at least W32/Netsky-P & W32/Mabutu-A failed.

I've never tried sweep before, but the one that is with 3.99 finds
nothing; however the one with 3.95 says "Useful life of SWEEP has
been exceeded" and finds nothing so there is no way for me to compare.
