Using SKIPIFFORGING means we don't have to keep adding
SKIPIFVIRUSNAMEHAS to the eml's for each new forging virus, right???
Can we then remove the SKIPIFVIRUSNAMEHAS lines?
What specifically do we put in virus.cfg and/or the individual eml's?

Correct -- *if* you are running the latest beta.

[1] Upgrade to v1.77, which automatically supresses them, or

Am I correct that if we don't have a current service agreement then we can't

It depends on when the Service Agreement expired. You are entitled to run
any version that is released while your Service Agreement is
active. Although we prefer that people run the
Are multiple scanners run in series or concurrently?
They are run in series.
Since the virus scanners typically use up as close to 100% of the CPU time
that they are given, if we switched to running them in parallel, an
improvement would only be shown on servers with multiple
processors.

Scott,
The current version number that we are running is 1.75. Our service
agreement expired on 12/31/03. What is the highest version number we can
upgrade to?
Thanks, Much!

The latest beta, v1.77, was released in December so you are entitled to run
that version if you wish.
If they are run in series, then wouldn't it be best to run the next
scanner only if the previous scanner passed? In other words why scan the
email again if it already failed one of the scanners?

The logic behind that is the only a small fraction of E-mail contains a

I have had at times, with both scanners (up to date sig files,
both catching mydoom) taking a pounding (we are getting mydoom.a in 1
every second), when Scanner1 (f-prot) would pick up the virus and
Scanner2 (InoculateIT) would not show anything, and at other times
Scanner1 would
Scott - did you ever find these guys? They still don't get it...
I finally got a hold of someone there. It looks like they will fix the
problem, but I just have to convince them first that it wasn't really
someone on your server that sent the virus. :)
Scott,
During virus outbreaks like this one, having the second scanner not run
when the first detects a virus would be a big processing saver. My
server was probably averaging about 5 times the normal processing load
in the last 3 days, catching a virus on average about 1.5 times a
minute.
The best of both worlds approach would be to allow for a switch,
SKIPIFFOUND ON. Removing the second scanner isn't a good option as
variants can come at any time and both F-Prot and AVG lagged badly on
picking up both Mimail.s and MyDoom.b.
We will look into adding an option like this.
