ClamAV 0.96 was released in April of 2010. How much time do you need to schedule an upgrade? If my servers were still running an old version a month after an update, I would consider it a serious problem. AV programs need to be kept up to date in order to provide the best protection. -- Bowie _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
