The two common causes are either that you > entered an invalid program name in the SCANFILE option in > \IMail\Declude\virus.cfg (make sure there are no spaces in the path), or > your virus scanner is leaving files behind that prevent Declude from > deleting the directory (it may be saving a report file that Declude doesn't > know about).
