I am afraid I am going to disappoint you, but it is a nonsence. There is nothing like EXE+ extension. avast! knows the true name of the file inside the archive, it doesn’t append any + after the extension. But since the file is password protected, it cannot be unpacked and scanned.
In the latest update, a special detection of the Beagle password-protected ZIP files has been added - but it has nothing to do with scanning of S&D recovery files. If avast! doesn’t give you any warning, that you may have changed something such that they are not scanned at all (or not reported) - but you certainly didn’t make avast! scan its password protected files.
