Having stopped doing formal reviews a while back, I've recently started

always 
choke to death on CAB files, or only those on Office install disks?)

Anyway, it has found some ... interesting stuff.  And while I know that
some of 
them are legit, I'd like to test out some others.  I know some of you
have access to 
systems that will run tests against a variety of scanners, so, if you
can contact me 
separately, I'd like to be able to send some pieces along for testing.

Also, two of the items are a wee bit confidential, so I'd like some
assurances that 
there will be no peeking at contents (other than doing the malware
scanning).

Thanks in advance.  (Isn't that one of the silly business buzzphrases?)
