Are you running the fpcmd.exe version of the fprot scanner? If not, you will see these sorts of delays.

Luis Alberto Arango Sent: Tuesday, May 03, 2005 6:00 PM To: Declude.Virus@declude.com Subject: [Declude.Virus] w32/Sober.O virus FYI: Today we were flooded with a massive incoming emails containing Sober.O (f-prot) virus. We receive aprox 15% of viruses out of all the emails we process. Today the figure raised to almost 40%. It fulfilled the overflow folder and there were delays of about 2 to 5 hours to deliver non-virus emails We received the first email with virus at 12 (noon) may 2. Our f-prot signature files were not updated -we update every 4 hours- and we let 27 emails with viruses passed through. There was nothing we could do about it. The virus was discovered the same day by Symantec, F-prot and others. Our F-prot received signature files at 1:30 pm and from that time on we have catched about 9000 emails out 30,000 The folder is full with 3000 emails and is not able to be handled as fast as we would want with declude/f-prot. Q: Is there something we can do to avoid such delays delivering emails other than use Imail Kill list, catching the computers delivering the viruses and moving to a strongest server.
