Fritz, Are you advocating using the ASSP integrated ClamAV as the only AntiVirus checker in the email stream for incoming email? Has ASSP been modified to decode Uuencoded emails? We often get virus's that pass right through ASSP with Uuencoded viral attachments, necessitating a second solution that decodes those emails before passing through its AV checker. For example, this latest virus run that attached EXE's. ASSP is configured to block EXE's but let 245 through in the last 3 days. I am not running the integrated ClamAV as I still have to scan every email that passes through ASSP to catch Uuencoded viruses with another scanner. Before this latest run, very few Uuencoded virus attachments made it through ASSP, but anyone relying on ASSP/ClamAV to protect then from this latest 'Storm Worm" virus run will be hosed. http://www.toptechnews.com/news/New--Storm-Worm--Pummels-PCs/story.xhtml?story_id=103003JUAT55 http://news.google.com/news?q=%22storm%20worm%22 Doug Traylor ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
