I have had the Beta running successfully under moderate load.  I am increasing the load on the beta today.  I had about 40 discovered and blocked viruses.  I agree filtering on file extensions is preventing a higher count.

The install was smooth on both windows 2000 and 2003 server.  Everything registered correctly.  So far vary stable.

Will the final release include the ability for signature to be updated on a schedule?

Kevin, I'd be glad to, but I don't think it will help, since it's not in ASP.  We have a proprietary quarantine management page and "reportlet" that is written in ColdFusion.  We don't use the SpamFilter ASP code at all.

Dan Dan, you show-off!  Actually, I'm glad you posted your results... good to see performance under load. But based on the resultset you posted, the query I posted earlier needs to be modified to give accurate totals by virus type.  Looks like the RejectDetails field sometimes includes a leading space, sometimes it does not... no biggie, it's easy to just trim it. SELECT COUNT(*) 'Virus_Messages', LTRIM(RejectDetails) 'Details' FROM tblquarantine WHERE RejectID=17 GROUP BY LTRIM(RejectDetails) ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC Jim

Jim,

Better?

that worked for me too.

I did notice that, even though I block *.com files, when I sent through the eicar test virus, it blocked the file via the black list but it also found that it had a virus and ultimatly blocked the message because of the virus.

LogSat wrote: Mikek, Let me add on to what Dan mentioned. SpamFilter does use the existing Norman engine (provided it's engine v12 or higher). There's a few caveats in this beta build however: The antivirus plugin consists of 3 DLLs used by SpamFilter: dwnse.dll, ncl.dll and nselapi.dll. These files are currently being installed by the antivirus plugin installation program. However the install program is currently not smart enough to see the existing Norman install, and will add another instance of the engine files in the SpamFilter\nvc\nse directory, and registry entries (the key mentioned inthe beta page). This will be fixed shortly. If SpamFilter sees an existing install of Norman, it will use that engine, provided the 3 plugin DLLs are present in the SpamFilter directory.

ok, so after installing the av plugin, I delete the mentioned registry entry and the SpamFilter\nvc\nse directories, except for the 3 DLLs mentioned?

will there be a reduced license fee for users like me that only need the plugin but not the norman engine?

I checked that and its blank.

Any suggestions?

I installed it to c:\program files\spamfilterav if that helps at all?
