Thanks, that worked better. It gave me a warning about the signature not matching, which worries me a little with a security app! I know others report getting this a lot, but I don't normally. But I went ahead with the install anyway. I noticed it has a --update option to get all the latest scan info, so I did that first. I don't know if this eliminates the benefits of going to 1.1.8. Pretty impressive list of things checked. It didn't find any nasties on my system, but it reported the following: * Application version scan - GnuPG 1.2.4 [ OK ] - OpenSSL 0.9.7c [ Vulnerable ] - Procmail MTA 3.22 [ OK ] - ProFTPd 1.2.9 [ Vulnerable ] I just updated everything on Monday (after switching to a working mirror). Any idea what's up with these vulnerability warnings? Has Mandrake not released fixed versions of these apps yet? Should I wait or install from source? I don't use these apps. Not directly anyway, but maybe something else uses them? -- Ron Hunter-Duvar ronhd at users dot sourceforge dot net Opinions expressed here are all mine.
