RE: [Declude.Virus] AVG antivirus did not work

2011-02-02 Thread David Barker
The error means that the AVG database failed to initialize. Did you do a
manual upgrade? 

 

One way to try resolve this is to delete all the files in
C:\SmarterMail\declude\scanners\avg\db then restart decludeproc, wait for
the new AVG signature to come down. Once the new signature file is down does
the error go away? If not email supp...@declude.com and we can help you
resolve the problem.

Subject: [Declude.Virus] AVG antivirus did not work

 

Today I have noticed that my AVG antivirus did not work. I really think a
long time that does not work.

My version of Declude was 4.10.48.
When looking at the file vir0202.log:

 

02/02/2011 00:02:07.505 453300649.eml Log Level set to MID

I upgraded Declude to version 4.10.58. Still does not run the AVG antivirus.
And the logs are showing the same error.

 

02/02/2011 20:20:32.574 453317098 Vulnerability flags = 351
02/02/2011 20:20:32.605 453317098 Error: AVG Initialize Fail (5)

I looked at the folder declude\scanners\avg\db and see this:

 

 Directorio de C:\SmarterMail\declude\scanners\avg\db

If I stop Declude, I delete these files and I start Declude, after a few
minutes its are recreated with the same sizes.


What is the problem?

RE: [Declude.Virus] Need Help - How to Rescan Messages

2010-09-15 Thread David Barker
Hi Andy,

 

To reprocess files through Declude place the matching pairs of Q*.smd and
D*.smd into the \proc folder. You can move them together however if it is a
lot of files you may want to move the D files first then the Q files.

 

 The best way to do it for IMail is to use Invariant Systems free
application http://www.invariantsystems.com/download/movefiles20.zip

 

The \Review folder holds messages that were busy being processed when
Decludeproc was stopped. Move old files from the \work to the \review then
move all the matching pairs to \proc.  There is no circumstance to move
messages to the \work.

Importance: High

 

Hi,

 

I had an issue overnight that caused many hundreds of messages to be moved
to the /Spool/Virus folder (Q* and D* pairs) and to the /Spool/Proc/Review
folder (Q* files only).

 

Question - how to I cause these files to be rescanned (as some may be REAL
Trojans).

 

Where do I move Q/D pairs from the /Spool/Virus folder? Do I move the D
file to the /Spool folder and the Q file to the /Spool/Proc folder? Or do
I move BOTH the Q  D file to the /Spool/Proc folder?

 

What about the Q files in the /Spool/Proc/Review folder - do I just move
them to /Spool/Proc, or to /Spool/Proc/Work?

I checked one file and it seems the matching D file was in the
/Spool/Proc/Work folder!

 

Best Regards,

Andy

Now, something may have changed that AVG is now detecting spam in their

This causes a whole bunch of problems, e.g.

 

a)  I am unable to 'weigh' this Spam with other factors BEFORE it gets

b)  It bypasses the WhiteList feature (from the user's Webmail

c)   It's treated like a Virus, hundreds of the configured virus
notices are being emailed, etc.

 

While I'm certainly in favor of any additional SPAM detection - but then it
needs to be PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED as part of Declude JunkMail not just
dumped into the regular virus handling!

 

If AVG reports to Declude the virus name Spam, then Declude MUST recognize
that and NOT treat it like a virus (or at least give us a config option NOT
to.)

2010-05-12 Thread David Barker
Andy,

 

My point was not that one shouldn't post to the list, we appreciate user
input no matter how we feel about it, an open forum is very important for
both Declude and users. All I am saying is if you had emailed us first then
we could stike the assumption that we dumped a new spam tests into virus
handling as you suggested.

 

While I'm certainly in favor of any additional SPAM detection - but then it
needs to be PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED as part of Declude JunkMail not just
dumped into the regular virus handling!

 

And then we could focus on the real issue of why is AVG reporting SPAM.
Working together to solve a problem is the goal, so let's rule out the
things we know it is not.

Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] AVG reports SPAM as VIRUS!

 

Dave,

 

I'm aware it's integrated in Declude Virus - that's why I chose the CORRECT
list to discuss this.

I referenced Declude Junkmail, because IF AVG is now reporting SPAM, the
THAT part SHOULD be handled as part of Declude Junkmail NOT as Declude
Virus.

 

I choose to use the list, whenever I have expended some time to track down a
situation and realize that this will affect all users and thus will save
everyone time from working on the same issue. That's the whole point of the
list!

 

Consequently, whenever AVG stops working altogether (which was doubted both
times when I discovered it - until eventually it was determined to have been
a problem after all), I will continue to report this on the list, because
everyone needs to be aware that their internal scanner may be
non-functioning for extended periods of time. The alternative would be for
Declude to post an alert!

 

When I notice that the Sniffer implementation has objectively incorrect or
incomplete sample files, or have sample files that don't make it obvious
that some IP based results will be triple-counted, then I feel justified in
discussing this on the list as this will benefit OTHER users who don't have
to re-learn what took me days to figure out.

 

I will post on the list whenever I'm hoping to solicit feedback from a
broader audience, to see if a situation I encountered was isolated or
turns out to be more widespread.

 

I will contact support@ whenever I suspect that I may have an isolated
problem that needs to be analyzed first.

 

In my opinion, I usually use the appropriate venue. But I accept that you
may disagree and prefer that the list is quiet.

 

Best Regards,

Andy

Thanks Andy,

 

I found that I do not have avgcertx.dll.  Should this file have been
included in the zip download David made?

David,

 

I was having this issue so I followed your directions below.  After
overwriting the current dlls, I could not get decludeproc to start.  I
determined that it was the avgsdk.dll that was in the newly downloaded zip
file that was the culprit.  I had to restore a previous version to get
everything working again.  I did notice that the new avgsdk.dll is
substantially smaller than the old version.

 

So  I am still having the issue originally described in the post.

RE: [Declude.Virus] RE: Internal (AVG Scanner) does NOT report file name

2010-05-03 Thread David Barker
We agreed that adding the file name would be useful and it is on the dev
list. I thought I posted this to the list but it may have got overlooked
with all the activity from last week ;)

Subject: [Declude.Virus] RE: Internal (AVG Scanner) does NOT report file
name

 

Hi Dave (just in case this was overlooked in all the activity last week):

 

Considering that AVG is integrated INTO Declude, it should interface at
LEAST as good as any external scanner.

 

However, the virus bounce message filename variable is NOT set when a
virus is caught by AVG. Only the Virus Name variable is populated.
Obviously, Declude is AWARE of the file name, because when Declude passes
control to an external scanners next, then the infected file is reported
correctly. So there should be no good reason, why a virus caught by the
internal scanner would not report the filename!?

 

This is also evident in the LOG file. Here's the EICAR virus caught by AVG
in the .48 build. It only reports the virus name EICAR_Test.

 

04/29/2010 22:22:20.277 qeae800cc0002.smd AVG Reports VIRUS: EICAR_Test

04/29/2010 22:22:20.277 qeae800cc0002.smd File(s) are INFECTED

04/29/2010 22:22:20.293 qeae800cc0002.smd Scanned: CONTAINS A VIRUS
[Prescan OK][MIME: 3 905]

 

If the SAME file is detected by an external scanner (in this case ClamAV) it
reports the virus name AND the file name:

 

04/28/2010 12:49:29.722 q6748c63e0425.smd Virus scanner 1 reports exit
code of 1

04/28/2010 12:49:29.722 q6748c63e0425.smd Scanner 1: Virus=

[Prescan OK][MIME: 3 875]

 

The AVG integration should be improved to match the quality of integration
of external scanners.

 

Best Regards,

Andy

RE: [Declude.Virus] New Release Declude 4.10.48 -- MUST Install to Reenable Virus Protection!

2010-04-30 Thread David Barker
Andy is correct, it should be remembered that no AV is 100% accurate. This
is why besides AVG and Commtouch which are integrated into Declude users can
run up to 5 additional external virus scanners using Declude, and as seen
from the lists CalmAV is a good choice for a free scanner.

Declude Users - take note!

 

CommTouch/Zerohous does a good job, but does not catch all known viruses
(some days I have 5 or 6 DIFFERENT viruses/trojans sneaking by, some to
multiple users each!), it's absolutely imperative that AVG works if you
don't have additional scanners set up.

 

Unfortunately, AVG had stopped working (no one has said for how many weeks
or possible months it has not worked). I have confirmed that AVG is now
working again after I upgraded from 4.10.42-A to 4.10.48. So - I recommend
all Declude users get on top of this quickly!

 

(PS: This is the second time AVG has gone AWOL inside of Declude for
extended periods of times - and it's never discovered until I finally
insist. Naturally, I have zero confidence in the built-in scanner. It's
unreliable and there is no notification whenever it stops working.)

2010-04-30 Thread David Barker
Mike,

 

I understand what the point of Andy's email is. I was commenting on
CommTouch/Zerohour does a good job, but does not catch all known viruses 

 

Yes AVG made a change to their database structure - Declude 4.10.46+ makes
use of their new data structure, this is integrated into the new release. In
order for Declude to work with the latest AVG updates one needs to be
running Declude version 4.10.46 or greater. If you have additional virus
scanners other than AVG or are running Commtouch then the move to the latest
version is not as imperative.

Uhhh.. I am pretty sure that was not the point he was trying to make. While
no AV is 100 percent effective, there is no reason for it not to work for
days or weeks. It would appear that when core files with AVG are exploited,
AVG obviously pushed out a software update to their software and I assume it
needs manually implemented in Declude.

Some clarification on this matter would be great.

Hi,

 

I've been watching this now for a few months. The internal scanner NEVER
ever catches a virus - while my two other scanner catch them daily.

 

However, since CommTouch doesn't allow the Eicar file to pass, there is no
way to easily test the internal scanner.  I think this is something that
should eventually be addressed - either by a parameter that allows a user to
disable CommTouch for a few minutes at night while testing OR by CommTouch
recognizing the EICAR file as a good file and letting it pass!

Hi Rob,

 

By False Positive you mean the message was good yet did not have a virus
but the email does contain the vulnerability, which can be exploited which
puts your server or recipient at risk.

 

The best thing to do if it comes from a specific address is to contact the
sender and make them aware of the issue so they can upgrade or patch their
side. If this is not possible, you do have the option of disabling this
vulnerability check either for the sender specifically or  turn it off
completely on your server (which we do not advise) so in short we suggest to
continue to check for this vulnerability.

RE: [Declude.Virus] Commtouch/Temp files going back to last year?

2010-03-19 Thread David Barker
This is the answer directly from Commtouch:

 

You can safely stop commtouch [declude] and delete all of these files.  If
any are needed, the application will download them again, but any handled in
this matter should be a few days old.  Usually Commtouch will clean up these
files on its own, but at times problems do develop due to the index.dat
file.  If you see any .tmp files older than a month, it is a good sign that
a delete should be done to clean up these temp files.

Thanks, I'll make it part of my monthly job that deletes files older than 30
days - that's tight enough for me.

 

Of course, Declude or Commtouch should be cleaning up after itself (e.g.,
whenever new files/signatures are downloaded) - but that's a different
story.

Hi David,

 

A while ago I was told these can be deleted almost immediatly but the
running DecludeProc service has them locked so it will be needed to stop
DecludeProc, remove the temp files and then start Declude proc.

 

As part of my nightly routine I have now:

--quote---

Set LogFile=C:\Beheer\Logs\CleanTemp.log
echo %Date% %Time% Starting CleanTemp  %LogFile%
Del /Q C:\IMail\declude\invuribl\Exception\*.*
Del /Q C:\IMail\WebDir\WebClient\temp\*.*
del /Q C:\IMail\Spool\tmp*.tmp

Del /Q C:\IMail\spool\proc\work\*.smd.tmp

echo %Date% %Time% End CleanTemp  %LogFile%

Hi Dave,

 

Thanks. So the answer is, there is no local override where we can disable
CommTouch ourselves. Such a directive maybe something for the to-do list.

 

To be frank - I was trying to test AVG. I've noticed in recent weeks that my
external scanners (ClamAV and my trusted McAfee) have been catching infected
emails - but AVG never catches any. The files in the AVG folder are all from
today. So when I had 2 minutes, I just wanted to quickly check if AVG had
somehow disabled itself again by passing an EICAR file through - but I
don't have time to make a big project out of it.

Andy

There is no per user settings for virus other than on or off or allow 
vulnerabilities. We can look at adding the new functionality to our development 
wish list.

Is there a way possible to allow on a per user basis outgoing banned extensions 
WITHOUT disabling outgoing virus scanning?

If not, could this be something that could be added?

Way back when this was introduced, we had the ability to list files names as 
well as extensions that we did not want the bannotify message to go out on.

Example, you could have SKIPIFEXT install.zip and if the banned ext file name 
was install.zip, the bannotify message would not go out.

Has this changed?

RE: [Declude.Virus] Commtouch ZeroHour - no longer active? What's the best procedure everyone uses to renew it?

2009-07-08 Thread David Barker
We just migrated servers this week. It is possible your DNS is using cached
information. Remember a diags.txt is only created on startup so you may have
old information.  Can you flush your DNS cache and restart Declude to see if
it resolves the problem.

Hi,

 

I noticed that ZeroHour stopped catching any viruses after 6/28 - and, after
investigating, I now realize it no longer traps any Spam. There were NO
changes to any .CFG (or other Declude files). I'm enclosing the most recent
Diags.txt (from 6/18, where CommTouch was ON) and then one from today after
I made a point of manually restarting DecludeProc.  Suddenly, it reports
CommTouch as OFF?

 

My customer screen shows:

 CommTouch

It can't be a coincidence that CommTouch stopped working 3 weeks ago,  on
the exact anniversary date of my (renewed) agreement?

 

Since I only purchased CommTouch a few weeks ago, I'm new to this. So, what
do Declude customers have to do after purchasing CommTouch or after renewing
their service agreements to make sure that the software will continue to
work with a complete function set? This way, I can add yet another reminder
to my calendar (besides monitoring the AVG licensing renewal date).

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] RE: [Declude.Virus] Commtouch ZeroHour - no longer active? What's the best procedure everyone uses to renew it?

2009-07-08 Thread David Barker
Andy,


When I checked your record on our server CT was set to ON I did not
reactivate it. 

 

1.   The switch over to the new system was on 6/28 8:00-10:00 pm EST
time. I chose Sunday to do this as web traffic to Declude would be low and
it was after the weekend.

2.   Thanks for pointing out that we should update our own DNS a week
prior. This was done 1 week prior and we set the TTL to 5 min.  Which I
think is still the case and once everything has settled we will move it up
again.

 

I have not pinpointed the exact problem as of yet however the issue you
experienced occurred on some servers and is resolved within minutes of
notifying us, as it was with you. 

 

Thanks 

David

Hi Dave,

 

The Diags.txt I had sent was created from THIS MORNING (I had made a point
of restarting DecludeProc to get a current status). So CommTouch was
definitely reported as OFF at that time.  It had been reported as ON in
June, the previous time that the server had been started (for security
fixes).

 

I cleared the DNS cache and restarted DecludeProc and now Diags.txt reports
ON for CommTouch. So thanks for re-activating it.

 

So - that leaves a whole bunch of new concerns:

 

-  If you ONLY migrated servers THIS week, then THIS was NOT the
reason.
CommTouch had stopped after 6/27, which is 11 days ago. (That's the last
date your log files showed any CommTouch hits!) However, it's the exact date
of my new renewal term! So what precisely happened on 6/28 at midnight?

-  Irregardless, if you switched IP addresses for some of your
servers, that you obviously would have to FIRST update your OWN DNS a week
prior (or whatever the old TTL was) to change the TTL for that DNS record to
something extremely short (e.g., hours). A week later, after the old TTL had
expired, you could THEN change the DNS record to the NEW IP address and
update the TTL to the longer period again. 
If you simply switched IP addresses without prior TTL adjustments, then your
customers would NOT see the new IP until the old TTL had run out. Although
this was not the problem I my case - which host name are we talking about
and how was this migration executed if you feel that your customers have to
flush their DNS cache to obtain the new server address?

 

Best Regards,

Andy

Declude does not process T*.smd files, these are temporary files created by
Imail. See what happens if you remove Declude as the delivery agent, does it
still occur. If yes it is 100% an IMail issue. If you need to get us on a
conference call with Imail support, set up a time with us and we would be
happy to do it.

Subject: [Declude.Virus] Hundreds

All throughout the day, hundreds of D and T files (each of them 0KB) 
show up in my spool directory.  I spoke with Ipswitch about this and 
they said they had heard of it only with other Declude users and that it 
most likely is caused by Declude.

Very quickly (way quicker than if they were all being delivered), they 
all disappear (e.g., 500 files are gone in an instant).  Anyone else 
experiencing this, or know what could be causing it?  I'm running

RE: [Declude.Virus] Database error after upgrading

2009-06-25 Thread David Barker
Hi Kevin.

1. If you are using the IMail MS SQL database this is different to their
previous version MS Access database, we are in the process of coding and
testing for Declude using MS SQL to use AUTOWHITELIST. I am not sure if you
have the option to use the old MS Access database in Imail or if it is just
MS SQL, if you can use MS Acccess then Declude AUTOWHITELIST will work or
you have to wait for our release.

2. We are currently also looking into this issue to determine what exactly
is causing this and if it is legitimate or a problem with IMail new format.

Declude has never had support for reading the SQL database in Imail. I don't
know your setup, but many times based on the registry, Declude would be
using the old system either the txt file or the later MS Access DB. We are
now adding the addition SQL, which should be available pretty soon.

1. We've been using MS SQL Server for years for our user/mailbox list 
(using the External Database option in Imail).  Which database are you 
referencing?  The user list database, or the contact database?  There 
weren't any changes to the user SQL Server database tables in Imail 11 
as far as I know.  And if you're referencing the contact database, why 
would that affect AUTOWHITELIST?

2. Great.  I hope a fix comes out soon.  The lack of the AUTOWHITELIST 
combined with two tests that add up to close-to-threshold weights caused 
a lot of legit email to be put into our bulk folders.

Unfortunately, Zerohour doesn’t identify the virus (which in some cases, may
be obvious if it’s a yet unnamed outbreak). But, the problem is that “know”
viruses are not handled as configured.

 

What are my configuration options for Declude Virus with regards to
ZeroHour?

 

Can I at least control the order of scanning – e.g., I’d rather have the
regular virus scanners try to “identify” and report “known/named” viruses –
and make Zerohour the option of last defense?

Hi Andy,

 

The ZEROHOUR was integrated into Declude as part of the virus code as it
provides ZEROHOUR anti-virus. Because of this it does not function the same
as the other tests. It either scores the email for x points as defined in
the global.cfg or it does not which is shown as zero. Changing the way
ZEROHOUR was implemented is on our development list.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] ZEROHOUR vs. TESTSFAILED
Importance: High

 

Hi,

 

Seems as if ZEROHOUR is not at all handled correctly vis-à-vis the
TESTSFAILED variable?

 

1.   Example: I have defined

 

XINHEADERX-Declude: Triggered [%WEIGHT%] %TESTSFAILED%

 

However, since activating ZEROHOUR I know see SMTP headers like this:

X-Declude: Triggered [-2] None, ZEROHOUR [0]

 

There are two things wrong with this:

 

a)  If “Testsfailed” returns “None”, why is the string “ZEROHOUR”
appended?  If it’s “None” then it should be “None” – and nothing else.

b)  If “ZEROHOUR” didn’t fail and thus has a weight of “0”, then it
shouldn’t appear in the TESTSFAILED list at all.

 

2.   In one of my filters, I have the line
TESTSFAILED  5  CONTAINS  ZEROHOUR
However, it fails to add “5” to the weight – as if it doesn’t detect
“ZEROHOUR” in the TestsFailed string – which would be consistent with items
“a)” and “b)” – because apparently there is a bug where ZEROHOUR is not
correctly included in the “TESTSFAILED” variable, but instead it is somehow
“appended” behind it!

 

The power of Declude is to be able to tightly configure (through various
options) how weights are assigned and (with the help of “TESTSFAILED”
filters) which groupings of tests might be testing/triggering on the same
“aspect” of a message. Currently ZEROHOUR appears to negate all the other
advantages of Declude!

It is implemented in the Declude virus but because the spam function
overlaps into junkmail and the spam weighting system is in junkmail the
weight is specified in the global.cfg  - as you can see it is more as  a
directive than a test. Secondly you are correct about the developer who

Thanks. The Global.cfg configures the Declude.Junkmail - but you said it was

both ends.

Based on log entries/detection it appears as if it first checks ZEROHOUR,
then AVG, then launches the external scanners.

 

Sorry for all the questions - just trying to wrap my arms around the new
way that everything is behaving now - as it's inconsistent with what I have
had in place all these years (both in Junkmail, which relies on TESTSFAILED
to control actions) and in Virus (which relies on virus name detection to
control what actions to take).

 

(Seems as if ZEROHOUR was added by a developer who wasn't yet
familiar/briefed with what was already in place elsewhere in the product,
and just came up with his/her own way of doing things instead of integration
with the existing features.)

 Commtouch does have a restriction. The condition is:

 a.      ISP shall mean an internet service provider or managed solution
 provider.

 What this means - if you are an ISP as defined by Commtouch, your primary
 function is to provide Internet service to your customers (like Comcast)
 or
 your business provides managed services (Like MXlogic) clean-and-forward
 of
 emails.

 Secondly, if your business is part of the ISP category you can use
 Commtouch
 with the added cost of $3.60 per user per year.

 And finally, the yearly cost and payments to Commtouch for NON-ISP
 perpetual
 license Declude customers is being absorbed by Declude.

 Uh - okay, that was the reason, why I wasn't able to purchase CommTouch

 As a hosting provider (which includes providing mailboxes for the

 provide
 Internet service.

 If they would define ISP as Internet ACCESS provider - then this would be
 a
 different story. Because we don't provide Internet access and our primary

 Commtouch does have a restriction. The condition is:

 a.      ISP shall mean an internet service provider or managed solution
 provider.

 What this means - if you are an ISP as defined by Commtouch, your primary
 function is to provide Internet service to your customers (like Comcast)
 or
 your business provides managed services (Like MXlogic) clean-and-forward
 of
 emails.

 Secondly, if your business is part of the ISP category you can use
 Commtouch
 with the added cost of $3.60 per user per year.

 And finally, the yearly cost and payments to Commtouch for NON-ISP
 perpetual
 license Declude customers is being absorbed by Declude.

RE: [Declude.Virus] Declude Virus inoperable for 13% of th year?

2009-06-04 Thread David Barker
Ok final comments on this.

1. For those who took my example of the decisions making process and
criticized it citing pre-release time of IMail 11 etc etc. If you think I
only have a choice between 2 options - where to dedicate my resources - you
missed the point. 

2. I fully agree with being proactive see point 1. The reality choosing
between what has to be done and what we would like to do.

3. Sandy’s options:

[a] dissolve the company as is – How does that benefit everyone ?

[b] sell the product to a developer – Show me the money!

[c] (re)package it as an owner-maintained, purpose-built software
tool  - Not enough demand.

[d] build up from there as needed – This is what I have opted for.

4. For customers who have a perpetual license but no service agreement the
expiration date of AVG is irrelevant as with no service agreement there are
no updates or virus signatures.

5. I agree there can always be improvements in the decision making process,
allocation of resources and creativity. The REAL issue is resources, how do
I know?? because I run this business and have all the information. 

So, I appreciate everyone's comments whether you agree or disagree is fine,
but what I have seen throughout this thread is that Talk is cheap not one
critic revealed how much they are willing to pay to help address the problem
going forward. The bottom line . you are not willing - and it's a good
thing I understand that, so I will continue to offer great service, a
product that works and at prices that would make the Salvation Army proud,
so please forgive me when sometimes things do go amiss.

Andy,

a.   Declude Virus does not have a built in system to report this error
as with this specific example. What happened here is not the norm but an
exception.  It was not our choice to hard code the expiration date but a
requirement from AVG. In this instance the specific persons who we had been
working with at AVG are no longer with the company and the process of having
this renewed took longer than usual. 

b.  I am not sure if you are being facetious, but if it makes you feel
better, sure you can schedule a reminder for me,  please email me at least 3
month prior of the new expiration date 2010-12-31 

c.   Yes AVG was not working as it should have been since 2009-04-10 I
agree with you -  this is totally unacceptable, intolerable, painful and
should not be brushed aside lightly. You are correct in your observations,
we should increase our prices dramatically so we can hire more developers to
ensure unfortunate incidents like this don’t happen again.  Considering the
market and what other vendors charge how much more are you prepared to pay
for your service agreement so that we can meet this type of requirement ?

Importance: High

Hi,

Dave – so now that we have a working Declude Virus again, what can be done
to prevent this from recurring.

a)   Apparently Declude Virus has no error tracking in place at all –
otherwise it would have REPORTED to us (or your own Declude to your own mail
server) that the AVG API was no longer performing scans?

b)   Do the customers need to set a follow-up reminder for December
2010, which is when your new renewed AVG license will expire?

The old DecludeProc had THIS AVG License String:

LicBeg, Ver=1.0, Name=Declude, Exp=2009-04-10

So this implies, that the product was inoperable since April 10th for every
customer because Declude didn’t obtain a new

Sorry no marketing department to give you the warm and fuzzy spin, just me.

 

Couple of suggestions. Declude has the ability to run upto 5 additional cmd
line scanners of your choice, we provide AVG as a courtesy to our customers
as in the past Declude did not have any internal virus scanner, you would
have to go out and purchase that separately

 

It would be good to run more than 1 virus scanner for several reasons, one
of which is failure of an AV scanner, (admittedly in this instance failure
was on our part) But rest assured false positives, no virus signatures, lag
time are problems ALL AV vendors are faced with. There are some that are
free that work extremely well ClamWin or ClamAV is an example of this.

 

In addition we have ZEROHOUR as a option for Perpetual license customers as
an additional  virus scanners providing ZEROHOUR protection and additional
spam definitions. For the amount of money that this is being offered for it
is a wise investment. If you opted out of this because you didn't want to
spend the extra few $ on security then you have different issues and it's
not Declude.

 

Lastly Patrick please contact supp...@declude.com having looked at your host
record it does not look like you are receiving any AV updates - it could be
that your firewall is blocking the AV updates, our support can work with you
to fix that.


Thanks

How much are we willing to pay?

 

It doesn't matter if it costs $5 or $5000 if the product doesn't work.
Especially when you, the developer, doesn't notice the problem for a month
and a half - especially when the problem has been reported by end users. Do
you not run your own product?

 

Maybe you don't realize this, but your whining customers put a level of
trust in your company whether you want it or not. This trust  is
automatic when you are dealing with A/V products that protect mail systems
and their networks. If you lose that trust, the cost won't matter. You won't
have enough customers to stay in business anyway.

 

Price you product at whatever you think you need to. The mail admins will
either buy it or they won't.

 

Maybe it's time for you to find another person to communicate with the list.
You certainly aren't giving your end users that warm and fuzzy feeling.
(IMO)

Darin,

 

I accept your constructive criticism. With regard to the situation;

 

1.   We recognize that this was a serious failure

2.   The issue was highlighted and resolved in the quickest possible
time

3.   Procedural steps have been put in place to ensure that this does
not happen again.

4.   This was an unfortunate circumstance and I understand the
frustration on the part of Declude customers

5.   We make every effort to meet the needs of our customers

 

My statement regarding increased prices has less to do with this current
problem as it has to do with moving forward and preventing issues like this
in the future. More $ means more resources which means more can be done
which equates to less risk in all areas.  Declude has given good service,
value for money and a product that works for minimum $. I understand that
the expectation is always more for less, however if customers expect more
than what is currently being delivered then I have to ask the question, in
clear, open and honest communication..

 

Mr/s Customer how much more are you willing to pay so that we can invest
in more resources in order to develop a better product?

Wow, what a way to respond to a long-time, loyal paying customer!  Instead
of apologizing for the serious problem and relaying what steps are being
taken to avoid it happening again (a simple reminder in the calendar system
of your choice would suffice), it's being thrown back in the customer's
face.

 

Regarding the question of increasing prices for service agreements, that has
no bearing on a current customer who has already paid the fees.  Such
customers should expect the service they paid for to be rendered.  Failure
to do so is a breach of agreement on Declude's part.  While we are all human

No Andy WE are paying for it not YOU. Here were my choices:

 

1.   Add ZEROHOUR and increase the service agreement price - Which we
did not do.

2.   Add ZEROHOUR and charge a yearly renewal on ZEROHOUR - Which we did
not do.

 

Instead this is what we did do - I opted to give all perpetual license
customers ZEROHOUR at COST and then Declude absorbs the yearly renewal I did
not ask for any more money, every year I pay a % of the Service Agreement to
Commtouch, we did this without asking you for a penny extra. And what do I
get from you . entitlement blah blah.. no you are not entitled to it, it
is a 3rd party add-on of which we carry the cost. If you would like to
participate, please purchase the ZEROHOUR at COST (meaning we make no money
on it) and benefit from what we are offering.

 

for your current full-time developer would be to implement ClamLib und the
Sniffer API

 

GREAT idea why didn't I think of that ? Wait I know - let me stop
everything else we doing and focus on the Sniffer API.

 

There's only so much up front investing that your investors (=customers)
are willing to do before they want to see results.

 

There is spin and there is reality.  I have laid down the issues and you
know my concern and dedication for Declude customers, every decision is made
with Declude customers best interests in mind balanced with keeping the
business running (maybe I am too soft for running a business). Untimely it
is a free market and if we doing it wrong we won't survive - if Declude does
not meet your needs and money is not an issue for you. Please feel free to

Hi Dave,

 

Could you please elaborate on that:

 

 In addition we have ZEROHOUR as a option for Perpetual license customers
as an additional  virus scanners providing ZEROHOUR protection and
additional spam definitions. For the amount of money that this is being
offered for it is a wise investment. 

 

Yesterday you indicated, in your breakdown of annual fees, you indicated
that my annual fees were 50% higher than 5 years ago (which I have been
paying without complaint), because my fees now PAID for feature. I wasn't
aware of that. Is there something special that I have to do to turn this on?
(I'm assuming: If I'm paying for it every year, I should be entitled to use
it?)

 

 It would be good to run more than 1 virus scanner for several reasons 

 

As far as external scanners - one desirable feature for your current
full-time developer would be to implement ClamLib und the Sniffer API so
that they do NOT require launching yet another command line program, which
chips away from the system heap - and causes severe overhead. 

 

 Mr/s Customer how much more are you willing to pay so that we can
invest in more resources in order to develop a better product?  

 

As far as the market place and how much to pay - I tend to compare Declude
to ORF (http://www.vamsoft.com/orfee_order.asp), which I both pay for. One
for Imail the other for IIS SMTP. Both have interfaces to external tools
(Sniffer, ClamAV, McAfee), both check SPF, DNS blacklists, URI Blacklists,
both have the ability to define RegEx custom filters.

 

The difference: for the lesser annual fees, ORF has been growing its
business by delivering versions with new features for as many years as I
have been a user. They even have a voting system where their paying
customers can express preferences which features are most important to them:
http://www.vamsoft.com/features/default.asp.  

 

Or, let's look at Sniffer: for $495.00/year you have a company that has
people actively improving their signatures several times EACH day PLUS
they still manage to put out significant new versions.

 

So don't falsely accuse us that we're unwilling to pay sufficient fees to
support one full time developer. I pay that many times over for spam/virus
filtering to various vendors - I even pay for DLAnalyzer and invURIBL, money
that Declude could and should have earned if they had added reporting and
URIBL scanning into the product. Then YOU would be getting the annual fees
I'm paying them!

I say it again: The budget is clearly there. The difference is, other
vendors invest that money into the product I pay for! Declude is the only
product that's been taking these fees for years and has NOT progressed the
product

LOL. I maybe one of the few, but I can spend almost whatever I need to to

LOL again. Don't need to. I don't use AVG. I only chimed in because I felt
that your responses to the issue was not helpful and somewhat offending the
users of your product.

 

Again, if you can't get the job done at current income levels, I suggest
you come up with the necessary figure after reviewing your operating costs.
You're the one selling a product. As for  you wanting to know what I will
pay for your product, I will leave you with this answer:  As much as I think
it is worth.

 

If the product is rock solid and I feel (or believe) that the company is
trying to stay up with current technologies and cares about me as a
customer,  I will pay much more than I would to a company that doesn't
project those qualities.

 

Oh, and by the way, I know how to setup a firewall. So, why don't you guys
concentrate on your code instead.

2010, which is when your new renewed AVG license will expire?

 

The old DecludeProc had THIS AVG License String:

 

LicBeg, Ver=1.0, Name=Declude, Exp=2009-04-10

 

So this implies, that the product was inoperable since April 10th for every
customer because Declude didn't obtain a new annual AVG license and had to
wait a few days for this transaction to complete? That means the product
was unusable for 13% of the year?

 

This can't just be brushed aside quietly. 

 

Best Regards,

Andy

Darin,

 

I accept your constructive criticism. With regard to the situation;

 

1.   We recognize that this was a serious failure

2.   The issue was highlighted and resolved in the quickest possible
time

3.   Procedural steps have been put in place to ensure that this does
not happen again.

4.   This was an unfortunate circumstance and I understand the
frustration on the part of Declude customers

5.   We make every effort to meet the needs of our customers

 

My statement regarding increased prices has less to do with this current
problem as it has to do with moving forward and preventing issues like this
in the future. More $ means more resources which means more can be done
which equates to less risk in all areas.  Declude has given good service,
value for money and a product that works for minimum $. I understand that
the expectation is always more for less, however if customers expect more
than what is currently being delivered then I have to ask the question, in
clear, open and honest communication..

 

Mr/s Customer how much more are you willing to pay so that we can invest
in more resources in order to develop a better product?

Wow, what a way to respond to a long-time, loyal paying customer!  Instead
of apologizing for the serious problem and relaying what steps are being
taken to avoid it happening again (a simple reminder in the calendar system
of your choice would suffice), it's being thrown back in the customer's
face.

 

Regarding the question of increasing prices for service agreements, that has
no bearing on a current customer who has already paid the fees.  Such
customers should expect the service they paid for to be rendered.  Failure
to do so is a breach of agreement on Declude's part.  While we are all human
and problems can occur, this is a serious failure, and the tone of the
response being putative instead of apologetic makes customers less
forgiving, not more.

 

To be frank, many customers are asking what they are paying for, when fix
and feature requests take months to be released, or not at all.

 

I understand the situation may be frustrating, but it's often best to step
back for a moment, vent elsewhere if needed, then respond professionally to
customers.  Clear, open, and honest communication also helps.

 

Please don't take this email as incendiary.  It is meant to be constructive.

Andy,

 

a.   Declude Virus does not have a built in system to report this error
as with this specific example. What happened here is not the norm but an
exception.  It was not our choice to hard code the expiration date but a
requirement from AVG. In this instance the specific persons who we had been
working with at AVG are no longer with the company and the process of having
this renewed took longer than usual. 

 

b.  I am not sure if you are being facetious, but if it makes you feel
better, sure you can schedule a reminder for me,  please email me at least 3
month prior of the new expiration date 2010-12-31 

 

c.   Yes AVG was not working as it should have been since 2009-04-10 I
agree with you -  this is totally unacceptable, intolerable, painful and
should not be brushed aside lightly. You are correct in your observations,
we should increase our prices dramatically so we can hire more developers to
ensure unfortunate incidents like this don't happen again.  Considering the
market and what other vendors charge how much more are you prepared to pay
for your service agreement so that we can meet this type of requirement ?

I rather would pay appropriate maintenance for a product that is enhanced
with features (as it was in the first few years when I had purchased it)
than to pay a lesser annual maintenance for a dormant product! 

 

Ah the good old days of Scott Perry.  Let's not forget you are paying less
for the product maintenance today than you were 5 years ago. Dormant ? or
not the fixes and features you want? 

 

However, I'm NOT willing to pay a company just so that they can pursue
OTHER technical, legal and marketing ventures INSTEAD of enhancing the
product. The problem with Declude is that they lost focus - this instance

Start laying off managers and other supervisory staff, cut the retainers for

author of the product did for YEARS. Once caught up with 3 years of backlog,
then sell me the upgrade!) 

You don't need additional personnel - you to need replace
overhead-personnel with production personnel.

 

Wrong. Declude is a separate company from DNSStuff. Our (Declude) revenues
are solely committed to maintaining and growing this company. 

 

I suspect the problem is not lack of funds but diversion of it.

Hi Michael,

 

Yes this is true, however Declude EVA does not totally rely on virus
signatures of AVG to stop virus' in your case you were not vulnerable as
Commtouch ZEROHOUR virus was still operational as well as the built in virus
detection by Declude EVA. We would still suggest you upgrade to the latest

Mr/s Customer how much more are you willing to pay so that we can invest

How much more than 100% of the annual fee are customers expected to pay
before Declude considers them entitled to expect to use the product (close
to) 100% of the time - instead of 87%?

 

The point is, this was a major mess up and the problem was absolutely poor
programming practice (hard-coding a time limit without adding code to deal
with the reaching of that limit). And your response is: Pay us more if you
want us to use remotely reasonably normal programming practice?

Nice. Thank you for your feedback Markus. 

 

MANY if not most of all Declude users has initially chosen the Swiss army
knife as their tool who they can customize, enhance and integrate in their
FULLY email filter system. 

 

This is true from the past and for many older Declude customers, but the
market has changed over the years - there are not enough people looking for
the Swiss army knife approach anymore. With managed services, hardware
appliances etc. anti-spam and AV is a cost center for most ISP's and they
would rather not have to deal with it at all. IMail themselves started
losing market share for the same reasons which had a direct impact on the
Declude business. So what was is no more. 

 

evolution and new functionality in order to be able to stay ahead or at
least near on top of the market leaders. 


Agreed, but also take into account the changing Mail systems, we support
both IMail and Smartermail, specifically supporting Smartermail as they were
growing while IMail was shrinking. Every time a new release of IMail or
Smartermail comes out something inevitably changes meaning we have to deal
with the MUST do's rather than innovation. Again to combat this we just need
additional developer/s so that we can dedicate one to maintenance and the
other/s to innovation. To do this we need $ and that cost will always be
carried over to you the customer, which I have done my utmost best to avoid.

 

 noted the active community who has definitively helped to let Declude
become what it is/was isn't there anymore. 

 

Yes that community was (and what is left) is extremely helpful and useful. 

 

All this isn't there anymore. Why? Because people who was ready to
contribute hasn't received back what they want and need: If such people has
asked for a new feature even if it was a little piece of thing the maximum
to  hear was that it will be placed on a long list of planned to-do's.


Depending on when this was and who was making the Declude decisions at the
time. But if I should speak for myself. I realize I can't make everyone
happy its part of my job. Here is a case in point, let's use this scenario.

 

AVG fails

 IMail release version 11 which is incompatible with Declude

 

If I choose to fix AVG first  - IMail users scream

If I  choose to fix IMail first - All users scream

 

So in this instance best decision is to let IMail users complain. Either way
Declude in one group of people is going to be the company that is not doing
enough for its customers. This is not really true but rather the
perception.

 

In the case you hasn't discovered it yet, from the begin of April on there
was a big increase of spam activity

 

This information is very useful and this is why the lists exist if we can
share information we have a community that benefits.

 

If there would be really someone taking technical care of this product he
has should put more then on eye in the past 2 months in order to keep this
product at least near to other spam filtering products. The cow was milked
and milked and milked and does urgently need now some fresh grass, water and
maybe also a new clean stable.

 

The only thing that would change this current situation is revenues which
means price increase. (Maybe it is time?)

For a while, AVG was doing an adequate job - but recently it again has been
missing virtually all infected emails that ClamAV and the trusted McAfee are
identifying.

 

I inspected several of the held files - and each one clearly was a life

Is that possible or do I have to disable it then for all addresses?

Hi Andy we will certainly look at this, although to be clear, it is very
presumptions to say that adding this will only be 2 min work.  Please be
careful when making statements like this because it raises a false

Subject: [Declude.Virus] Parsing of Report.txt
Sensitivity: Personal

 

Hi,

 

With the ability of ClamD to run at lightning speed as a native Windows
service (e.g., http://oss.netfarm.it/clamav, without CygWin), offering
frequent updates during the day (quite contrary to the internal scanner that
often lags days behind) and has acceptable licensing terms - it certainly is
a highly attractive external scanner that should be fully supported by
Declude after ClamAV has been around for all these years.

 

Sadly, since Declude hasn't seen any feature updates in ages, the virus.cfg
parameter REPORT still can't parse the virus reports generated by
ClamDScan. Consequently, the Declude virus log files and virus notification
emails are missing file and virus name info.

 

I took 2 minutes and created a small .JS script that parses the ClamDScan
report file and then outputs a McAfee lookalike just to make Declude
happy. But that means that yet another batch process is now chewing up
Windows' limited resources.

 

To justify THIS year's maintenance renewal money, can PLEASE have someone
spend the same 2 minutes in the Declude source code to correctly parse the
ClamDScan output:

 

--

c:\maintenance\eicar.com: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND

 

Thanks in advance.

I think you missed the real point of Andy's email.

 

The last official Declude release was 4.4.0 on 3/17/2008. It's already
Febuary 2009, so it's about a year with no with no official releases. That
doesn't make me feel like I'm getting much out of my maintenance renewal
money.

Sensitivity: Personal

 

Hi,

 

With the ability of ClamD to run at lightning speed as a native Windows
service (e.g., http://oss.netfarm.it/clamav, without CygWin), offering
frequent updates during the day (quite contrary to the internal scanner that
often lags days behind) and has acceptable licensing terms - it certainly is
a highly attractive external scanner that should be fully supported by
Declude after ClamAV has been around for all these years.

 

Sadly, since Declude hasn't seen any feature updates in ages, the virus.cfg
parameter REPORT still can't parse the virus reports generated by
ClamDScan. Consequently, the Declude virus log files and virus notification
emails are missing file and virus name info.

 

I took 2 minutes and created a small .JS script that parses the ClamDScan
report file and then outputs a McAfee lookalike just to make Declude
happy. But that means that yet another batch process is now chewing up
Windows' limited resources.

 

To justify THIS year's maintenance renewal money, can PLEASE have someone
spend the same 2 minutes in the Declude source code to correctly parse the
ClamDScan output:

 

--

c:\maintenance\eicar.com: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND

 

Thanks in advance.

Gary,

I apologize the latest is 4.4.24. Yes you are correct the readme.txt does
have the following note. Interim releases are stable and tested but as they
are not official I guess you have a point... if I could give you an
analogy - it is for the same reason Google has not taken GMAIL out of Beta
yet. 

I can have the current interim release be official, what I am communicating
to you is that it would be exactly the same as what you have now 4.4.24 this
is not being disingenuous, but rather the exact opposite, perhaps you could
accuse me of being too honest. But for argument sake I will officially
make 4.4.24 official and have it released in the next week or 2.

David,

If 4.4.25 is available to all with service agreements, where is it?  
Declude's main download page shows 4.4.0, and the interim page shows 
versions 4.4.23 and 4.4.24.

And, as your readme.txt file in your interim directory says, Interim 
releases are versions of Declude that are released between betas (some 
software companies refer to these as alphas). They have one major 
advantage to betas and released versions: they allow our customers to get 
fixes and new features very, very quickly. We can often have a fix in less 
than an hour.  However, there are a number of drawbacks...

Interim releases are not production releases.  You cannot substitute a 
production release with an interim release.  And trying to equate an 
interim release with an official production release is disingenuous.

If there is a stable release with significant bug fixes (such as deleting 
the .txt files being left in the work directory by AVG), then why has it 
taken this long for Declude to release it officially?  Declude's answer 
for a problem should not be to tell me to install an alpha or beta version 
of their product on my production server.

 Hi

RE: [Declude.Virus] Force AVG update

2008-12-29 Thread David Barker
So here is how it works.

AVG releases a virus signature update on average once per day. By default
Declude will check with the AVG definitions server once per 24 hour period
or at every start of the Decludeproc service. As the time of this check is
different for everyone we give Declude the ability to do checks on a more
regular basis which is defined in the Declude.cfg

#Ability to configure the built-in AVG update interval which checks for
updates. Minimum is 1 hour.

AVGUPDATEFREQHRS12

Then, at the end of the day we parse the logs and associate the information
with our website. So the information on the website from your HOST record as
to whether you virus signatures are updated can in fact be at the most 48
hours difference. The best way to check the virus signature  date is to get
the time/date on the files in the 
\declude\scanners\avg\db directory at least one of the files should be today
or yesterdays date. As the way the virus signature files are incremental,
they are distributed to the other files so as to provide the most efficient
file size for download.

Secondly, if you are running Commtouch. This is a ZERHOUR virus scanner that
is able to detect virus' without definitions and is real-time, you can read
more about it here:

http://commtouch.com/Site/products/zero_hour.asp

To get stats on AV accuracy compared to other scanners you can visit here:

http://commtouch.com/Site/ResearchLab/VirusLab/virusLab_docs.asp

Declude supports up to 5 additional external scanners. Declude has the key
functionality to enable the use of an external scanner as a email server
scanner. You are mistaken if you think you can use a regular network virus
scanner as your email scanner there is a reason your AV vendors have a
separate product for mail servers and average $3-5$ per user. So if you have
1000 users the cost $3000 

Here are some thoughts on why using Declude is better than your traditional
virus scanners when it comes to email:

1. There are a number of mailserver anti-virus solutions available today.
However, many of them involve an unnecessary SMTP server chain. This means
that E-mail comes in to one SMTP server, is scanned for viruses, and then
goes to another SMTP server which processes the mail in the usual fashion.
Most mail server virus scanners have no way of authenticating users. If you
have an SMTP-based virus scanner, you can have users authenticate against
the real mail server. However, by doing this, the E-mail bypasses the virus
scanner. If you allow that, you are allowing viruses though your server.
With Declude, we scan every message.

2. The Decoder the piece that Declude handles requires (among other things)
handling numerous encoding schemes, recursive MIME segments, and even
viewable non-text MIME segments (such as HTML, that needs to be scanned,
even though it isn't an attachment). MIME is very complex, and even leading
mail server manufacturers often have troubles handling MIME segments
properly. We know MIME and encoding schemes inside and out, Declude can
handle the most sophisticated MIME segments.

3. A vulnerability is a security flaw in a program. You may have heard about
some of the more common mail client vulnerabilities, such as the Outlook
MIME Headers vulnerability (where a virus can be run automatically with
certain versions of Outlook). While these are bad, a standard mailserver
virus scanner will catch viruses that exploit these vulnerabilities.

However, there is another serious type of vulnerability that has recently
been discovered: mail server vulnerabilities that allow viruses to bypass
mailserver virus scanners! For example, the Outlook 'MIME segment in MIME
preamble' vulnerability causes Outlook to see viruses that don't actually
exist in an E-mail. In this case, a mail client (or mailserver virus
scanner) that properly decodes the E-mail will not see an attachment.
However, Outlook will incorrectly see an attachment.

When a virus uses this type of vulnerability, it will bypass a standard
mailserver virus scanner, and get delivered to the recipient! That's why you
should use Declude Virus: it detects these vulnerabilities. Since it detects
them, Declude Virus will be able to catch new viruses that use the
vulnerabilities, where standard mailserver virus scanners won't be able to
catch them.

You can read more about vulnerabilities here:

http://www.declude.com/articles.asp?id=219

At the end of the day it is about value and $$ I am still confident that
with Declude we still offer the best value for the least $$.

An FYI on the AV process.

Declude receives from AVG an email (example below) this is typically once
per day. On occasion we may get several per day or one in two days. As soon
as this email is received we download the latest definitions to our AVG
server and the definitions are available for your Decludeproc to retrieve.
Now depending on when this last check was done by your Declude - will
determine when you will get the AV sigs or what the time difference is
between release and update.

I have complained about this for a while now.

 

This process of fix the configuration the place in the proc folder only works 
if you are constantly pouring through your hold folders. We do not do that. We 
send an email to our users with the message they have in their hold. They then 
have the option to deliver the message to their inbox, when they click the 
recover link the message is placed in the spool folder and a copy of the raw 
email is sent to our admin to then look at the configuration.

 

This process makes the hold folder completely hands off.

 

 

How about an option to VIRUSSCANONHOLD. This would make everyone happy.

For what it's worth, I never move messages from HOLD to SPOOL. When I do move

circumstance doesn't happen again, and then I move the files from the HOLD to 
the PROC folder.

 

By re-scanning them, they get virus scanned and I am sure that I have saved 
time by getting spam scanned as well; it would cost me more time to repeat the 
procedure next time than it takes me to override my text filters and re-queue 
the messages now.

 

Very few messages get pulled out of the HOLD folder, so not scanning those 
messages for viruses saves me a lot of processing power.

Correct if you send held email directly to the spool there is a potential for a 
virus to bypass if running AVAFTERJM this is why it is important to correct the 
issue that caused the false positive then reprocess via Declude. OR alternately 
ensure you virus scan your HOLD folders.

 

If you are asking to only to apply AVAFTERJM only to Deleted emails this would 
reduce it’s effectiveness as not every Declude customer uses Delete.

RE: [Declude.Virus] F-PROT 6 vs ClamAV SOSDG

2008-06-23 Thread David Barker
Correct if you send held email directly to the spool there is a potential
for a virus to bypass if running AVAFTERJM this is why it is important to
correct the issue that caused the false positive then reprocess via Declude.
OR alternately ensure you virus scan your HOLD folders.

 

If you are asking to only to apply AVAFTERJM only to Deleted emails this
would reduce it's effectiveness as not every Declude customer uses Delete.

By NOT scanning held junkmail the virus WILL end up in a users mailbox if I

 AVAFTERJM has been around a long time.  I don't remember what version,
 but
 it was a 1.x version.
 
 Are you familiar with the setting?  It tells Declude to run Anti-Virus
 after
 Junkmail.  It then only runs AV after checking to see if the message is
 spam.  With the spam load these days, I would expect that to be the
 desired
 config, resulting in AV scanning on only about 10% of incoming mail
 instead
 of 100%.  However, it is not the default setting, which runs AV first,
 then
 Junkmail.
 
 That could easily account for yours and Kathy's 70-100% CPU.

I have complained about this for a while now.

 

This process of fix the configuration the place in the proc folder only works 
if you are constantly pouring through your hold folders. We do not do that. We 
send an email to our users with the message they have in their hold. They then 
have the option to deliver the message to their inbox, when they click the 
recover link the message is placed in the spool folder and a copy of the raw 
email is sent to our admin to then look at the configuration.

 

This process makes the hold folder completely hands off.

 

 

How about an option to VIRUSSCANONHOLD. This would make everyone happy.

For what it's worth, I never move messages from HOLD to SPOOL. When I do move 
false positives out, I fix the problem in my configuration, so that the same 
circumstance doesn't happen again, and then I move the files from the HOLD to 
the PROC folder.

 

By re-scanning them, they get virus scanned and I am sure that I have saved 
time by getting spam scanned as well; it would cost me more time to repeat the 
procedure next time than it takes me to override my text filters and re-queue 
the messages now.

 

Very few messages get pulled out of the HOLD folder, so not scanning those 
messages for viruses saves me a lot of processing power.

Yes.  It's expensive, but is still a good and efficient scanner.  Kaspersky 
and AVG combined may be a good way to go for lower cost if you can afford 
the CPU of two scanners, or perhaps just Kaspersky.

Not sure if anyone has good stats on the performance, completeness of 
rulebases, and time from initial reports to detection of a virus for the 
various scanners, but from what information I was able to find, Kaspersky 
looked good and wasn't too expensive, and AVG is inexpensive though may be 
lacking as a single scanner.

Zerohour does not catch viruses based on signatures. It is a virus signature 
that defines it’s name. Signature-less protection is an essential complement to 
traditional AV technologies. By proactively scanning the Internet and 
identifying massive virus outbreaks as soon as they emerge, Commtouch's 
Zero-Hour provides proactive virus blocking that is effective and 
signature-independent. http://www.commtouch.com/GUI/images/general/blank.gif

In each instance ZEROHOUR reported a virus but did not know what it was, one of 
my other scanners DID know what it was and reported it so.

I sure hope Declude will change this behaviour and report the known virus name 
when one of the scanners DOES report a name.

I'm right now using Declude 4.3.64, I'll start using 4.4.0 later this week.

It could be ZEROHOUR as it identifies viruses based on attributes other than 
virus signatures thereby providing zerohour protection, in many cases the virus

If I remember correctly, it is not the ZEROHOUR spam test catching a virus. It 
is the internal AVG virus scanner saying it has caught an unknown virus, or 
what it thinks is a virus.

RE: [Declude.Virus] ZEROHOUR caught a virus

2008-05-05 Thread David Barker
It could be ZEROHOUR as it identifies viruses based on attributes other than 
virus signatures thereby providing zerohour protection, in many cases the virus 
has no name as it has not been identified yet.

I seems one of my other scanners thinks it's a virus as well, and... it reports 
a name.

 

1) I've seen a ZEROHOUR virus just once before, is this a new feature?

 

2) Does ZEROHOUR ever know the name of the virus?

 

3) Could we have a new feature where Declude uses the real name of a virus 
when multiple scanners report a virus and some don't know the name?

Put the LOGLEVEL on DEBUG and capture a crash, send it to

Lots of confusion here:

a) the subject refers to 4.3.46 - which shows up on my customer screen as
the latest RELEASE

b) however, that's less than the interim 4.3.57 that is shown on my

c) the body of your email refers to 4.3.64 - which would make more sense.
Except, THAT number is not visible ANYWHERE on my customer screen, neither

Hi,

 

I put in 4.3.62 in this afternoon (was running a different interim from a
few months ago). Since then I had numerous different clients reporting
clients with Outlook 'MIME segment in MIME postamble' Vulnerability.

 

Valid emails from Lotus Notes 6 with attachments were rejected (reproducible
at will), messages from Yahoo Webmail, etc.

 

If a change was made that triggers this test for major mailers, then it's
worthless because no one can keep it on!

Ok so if you revert to .57 the issue goes away correct.

I did not have this problem with .57.  So we can rule out .46.

 

Sorry, jumped right from .57 to .62 - so can't say if it was introduced with
.59 already.

I have not reverted to .57, I have disabled this vulnerability in the
Virus.cfg for now to see what other issues I might uncover. (There was a
false positive reported last night for a different vulnerability for mail
send by Netscapes mail applet, but I haven't firmed that one up yet).

 

If you like me to, I have an archive of held Postamble MIME files that are
LEGITIMATE (some of them are automatically created emails that our clients
used to get all the time) and zip them up to you? If so, which email do you
want me to use?

Dave,

 

The Blank Folding Vulnerability is ALSO causing false positives (but not as
many as the Postamble one).

 

I'll send you ANOTHER email with Blank Folding false positives in about 5
minutes.

 

I have to back this release out - something majorly wrong with it.

Hi,

 

I put in 4.3.62 in this afternoon (was running a different interim from a
few months ago). Since then I had numerous different clients reporting
clients with Outlook 'MIME segment in MIME postamble' Vulnerability.

 

Valid emails from Lotus Notes 6 with attachments were rejected (reproducible
at will), messages from Yahoo Webmail, etc.

 

If a change was made that triggers this test for major mailers, then it's
worthless because no one can keep it on!

Anyone know of a freebe that will remove this one? Currently, the only way
we're able to remove it is safe mode and avg.

thanks, bob

RE: [Declude.Virus] AVG Antivirus AVG7CORE.SYS IOCTL Handler Privilege Escalation

2007-07-12 Thread David Barker
Mark,

 

As we use the AVG SDK which integrates with Declude we do not use the
AVG7CORE.SYS device driver. So this should not be an issue.

David,

Is the built-in AVG affected by this?
