Brad,

You need to set up an automatic update for your F-Prot.

Many people on this list are using a batch file that with a simple
scheduler can keep you up to date.

I have included the one I use and run every 6 hours.  I have placed it
in a zip file for safety purposes.

I am more than happy with the Declude / F-Prot configuration and I don't
have any worries about my virus scanning being out of date.

It's a money thing scott - I mean did you look at the price of it almost
$7000 dollars good grief what a rip off.  I've got a bout $650 invested
in my Declude and it catches tons of viruses everyday.  My thoughts are
they did that just to make more money and Symantec gets to make money. I
mean everybody knows the Symantec name.  No offense scott but if it
wasn't so damn expensive I might would look into it.  The only thing I
don't like about declude is finding a virus program to work with it, I
bought Mcafee but it sux.  I've had the best luck with F-Prot for DOS
but I manually have to remember to go update it and install the update -
kind of a pain in the *&^ if you know what I mean.  But Declude
Antivirus makes me MONEY!  I am the only ISP in the area that even scans
their email for viruses and ppl that aren't my customer come in and have
me fix their computer from a virus (note I also repair pc's) and I throw
that punch line - If you had your Internet Service with me I probably
would have been able to prevent it.  Scott you make a great product keep
up the good work.


My 2 1/2 cents worth

Again, it's time for me to step in (perhaps "whine" a little?), as there
is 
some misinformation here.

Nobody from Computerized Horizons (the company behind Declude) contacted

anyone at Ipswitch to find out why they used Symantec rather than 
Declude.  Although we have had discussions with several people at
Ipswitch, 
we have not not asked why they chose Symantec.

I believe it was one of our customers that had asked the question.

>Imail is an excellent product...

FYI, I do agree that IMail is an excellent product -- that's why our 
products only work with IMail.
