The following was reported on bugtraq. (securityfocus.com)

[i]I doubt how many Antivirus/Trojan/Spyware scanners will choak to death while having a “manual scan” of this file. Please go ahead and give it a try.

I was woundering, what would be the results if such file gets stucked in an “AV gateway”[/i]

I tested this file, and Avast! can’t find the Escar file in the zip.
In my experience, once an exploit is reported it’s only a matter of time before it is seen in the wild. I was asking if Awlil was aware of the problem and if they are working on a solution.
