Untouchable does well at scanning archives, abd files compressed with 
PKlite, LZEXE, Diet, and maybe others.

However; I performed some tests with PKlite 1.15 recently. McAfee's Scan 
was able to detect the virus inside the file compressed with PKlite 1.15. 
Untouchable wasn't able to scan inside the file.
 
I hope that UTScan can be updated to work with compressed files created 
with PKlite 1.15 and above.
