Title: Slightly OT: Need some server/virus/spyware help
I have used it and it is very easy to install, use, configure.

I have installed it in a couple of machines with tons off spyware and it is a great program nailing everysingle spyware file and registry line.
 
Once installed it keeps an eye on your system most important files to avoid changes without any permission. If you install it and run it try later on to add or erase a user to see how the program works with a registry change (if you use registry DB) it should send you a message asking to authorize the change or at least warning you.. I haven't test it in an imail server

Subject: [IMail Forum] Slightly OT: Need some server/virus/spyware help

So, its 3 something in toe morning and Im here scanning my mail server for spyware. One of my associates used it to browse some websites and got the sucker infected with all sorts of nasties. Ive spent the better part of 3 days trying to get this thing clean to no avail. While my software will detect the spyware it cannot completely clean it so the apps become active after a reboot.

Im considering a server rebuild but I really dont want to take my only Imail server completely off line for me to wipe the drives and rebuild it from scratch. That will take hours. Oh, its a Compaq Proliant 5000 server running Imail 7.15 HF2. Yes, its old but it works for us. Is there a way to simply reinstall the OS and perhaps some patches without having to totally reconfigure the server or use the Compaq SmartStart app? Im betwixt a hard rock and a concrete wall. Oh, this server is also my primary DNS server as well, running SimpleDNS Plus, just to complicate things.

Any help is Greatly appreciated. Feel free to contact me offline.

Thanks!
