I tried turning off PRESCAN and suddenly there were
a flood of full catches (not even error code 8).
FYI, we have discovered an issue where the prescanning can attempt to scan
non-HTML files, which could cause this.
Until we have a fix for this, it is recommended to turn prescanning off.
I don't think I ever used the prescan, but just to make sure, how do you
turn it off ?
You would just change the PRESCAN ON line to PRESCAN OFF (in the virus.cfg
file).
manual.html does not mention prescan
Thanks for pointing that out -- we're putting a list of additions to make
to the
default to on ? or some other issue ?
Thanks

The default is off. The problem can only occur if the line PRESCAN ON is
present.

correctly, notification said unknown virus.
That's right. You can search
