2. (Type 2) A MIMEsweeper Scenario for the anti-virus tool (wrapper) to
link via an API interface
3. (Type 3) A Virus Manager Scenario to call a command line or executable
AV tool
*For optimum performance Type 1 or 2 should be used
Each AV product will only work with a specific type (or types) of scenario,
