Hello.

I submitted it over a week ago, and got a response saying that "Our 
initial assessment has verified the sample as a threat & we will be 
publishing signatures for ClamAV," but neither the ClamAV scanner in 
Jotti nor the one in Virus Total detects it.

You can verify for yourself; the SHA-1 hash is: 
d2058d5fdd9c4551f7c888d6673a6dbc780b095d.  Shall I resubmit?

Thanks,
Jonathan
