Thanks for the info - I hadn't yet looked at the code But the tmp dirs when debug != 0 would explain it (I was using debug = 2 so I could see what was happening.)

I am using XAV 22/08/2003 version with modifications to let mcAfee do the AV and some extra logging. That is running fine. Trying to replace XAV with the new version and adapting the xav.ini give a poor result. Replacing uudevieuw.exe with a batch file shows that the filename is not passed. Due to a change in the code of the logging my Borland C compiler gives an error so I can not debug this code anymore. In this version the temp directories will stay if debug != 0, or if XAV doesn't finished execution in a proper way. On my system XAV - new ends execution normal and removes the temp dirs.
