One difference between the virus rule and the other rules is that the
virus rule does NOT have a space (or tab?) after the colon.

I would be surprised, but you never know...

Btw, I think the ".*" at the end are not needed.  (".*" at the end
might be useful for fancy splitting.)  The string "xyzzy" matches the
regexp "x" just like it matches the regexp "x.*".
