RE: Virus checking uploads

  Hi Katherine,

  I don't know what kind of solution you are tending to be partial to, 
but I can speak about a product I have some experience with. It's a 
network based antivirus program from a company called PandaSoft. At my 
previous company we ran it on our internal network (which also protected 
all of our pop servers and checked all incoming email) and on all of our 
web and production servers. It will realtime monitor everything and as a 
file is uploaded or otherwise added to the system's drives, it will 
check it and remove any part of the file that is contaminated. It has 
very small overhead and has a browser based admin where all of your 
computers can be monitored and controlled realtime.

Subject: Virus checking uploads


Hi,

We've got to develop a facility whereby users can upload material to a
server via a cfm page, but we need to have some kind of virus checking
software to check all uploads first. Does anyone know of anything 
already
out there and how much it would cost?

McAffee, as I'm sure others, delivers an executable
that you can use to scan files on upload.  You would
use cfexecute then pass any args.  McAffee's utility
comes with a test virus you can use.
