Well, *duh* - if you don't bother virus-scanning, and just dump everything
in a quarantine area, of course your virus-scanner won't get compromised. :)

Of course, that *does* leave you with the sticky question - how do you know
if/when it's safe to look at/examine/open a file that's been dumped in the
quarantine area? :)
