	Estou utilizando a versão para Linux (Razor), mas ele gera muitos falso 
positivos.
	Como por exemplo, diariamente eu tenho que verificar a minha caixa de 
SPAM, porquê sempre cai um bugtraq at securityfocus.com lá dentro, e também 
de várias outras listas.
	Vários colegas aqui do trabalho caíram na minha caixa SPAM. =(
