Well it does simply sound like your system is now too small for the current software I'm afraid. A year between engine updates is a LONG time - either McAfee have been very slack - or you have ;-) Sounds like their newer engine has a lot of new code for catching those nasty viruses - 'tis the price we pay I'm afraid... So, you have several options: * look at other AV products. Someone elses may be less hungry than McAfee. Especically the daemonized ones such as Sophie and Trophie. * More hardware! Fixes everything ;-) This could be a bigger machine, or (my fav) more machines. DNS round-robin does a wonderful job of load balancing. -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
