Hans, it looks like it is removing the temporary arc5822 directory that the BBS
uses to temporarily extract the archive before extracting the file.  After
which it looks like the BBS then recreates the same directory, extracting the
contents of the new file to that directory, then running the scanner on each
file in that directory.
