so I have requested that the test be rerun.

Important detail for you... The bug which disabled detection of polymorphic viruses was never in a stable release of clamav. The bug only appeared in development snapshots newer than clamav-20031201.

Clamav 0.65, 0.66, 0.67 or any other released version of clamav, are not impacted.
