Dear Sandro: I was going through this with the support today. Your purge might not be working if your database is full and has no space in it. In order for the purge to work, I think you need at least 100 Mb of free space. If you don't have it, try increasing the database size and then try purging. It can also be useful if at the beginning you try purging a few days since your installation (purge just a few days from the database) and then repeat incrementally. That worked for me Best regards; __________________________________________________ Sherine Barakat Information Security Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet Security Systems - UAE and Oman Dubai Internet City - Building 12, Office 203 Phone: +9714 3912836 Fax: +9714 3912905 Mob: +9715 05581779 Roaming Mob: +2 010 3888536 www.iss.net Internet Security Systems(tm) - Home of the X-Force(tm)
