worked with exchange client very well also.

Only if you're using Microsoft clients. If you're using something like
Eudora, which writes the attachments to disk as soon as they are received
(and is also immune to attacks or exploits targeted at Outlook/Outlook
Express), it alerts on the viruses immediately.

Hmm...
They're asking for your bank card number  PIN, SSN, credit card
number and date of birth. They also use perfect English such as
your credit card will be frozen during 10 day.
Looks pretty legitimate to me.

Is anyone using a RAMDisk on their server (with F-Prot) to
attempt to speed things up and lessen the load on the hard drives? If so,
what results did you see, and how did you configure it?

Subject: [Declude.Virus] Outlook-CR vulnerability
Might I make this suggestion for detecting the Outlook-CR
vulnerability,
to 
try to attempt to reduce the false positives (which seem to be close to

100% at this point):
Whenever a CR without a LF is seen, check the message header to see if
a
BEGIN ... is actually enclosed within it, indicating that a
payload 
actually exists. If not, perhaps a different notification could be
made,
so 
we can determine whether to simply warn, or quarantine based on the 

analysis. Right now, I've had to turn off the Outlook-CR check
altogether, 
because of too many complaints from users who are getting virus
warnings
(as well as their senders) instead of their valid, non-infected, albeit

header-munged messages.

Anyone else have this experience with this worm?
Are you running Declude v1.45 or higher? FBound uses illegally
formatted MIME segments that some mail clients may be able to decode
while others can not. Declude v1.45 will be able to detect these
bogus MIME segments, and decode them the same way that those mail clients
would, allowing the virus to get caught.

Re: [Declude.Virus] F-Prot error?

2002-02-04 Thread Scott MacLean

For anyone who comes across the Symantec problem I
mentioned, when I opened the registry key mentioned in the KB article, I
found the VDD key contained the SYMEVNT1.DLL file that is mentioned in my
error box. When I deleted and re-created the VDD key with blank content
as directed in the KB (using REGEDT32, as the value has to be a
REG_MULTI_STRING), it seems to have (so far) solved my problem.
Thanks, Scott!

get this error. I'll get the exact message when it happens

We just today came across this error message:

This one caused by a problem in several versions of Windows.
Microsoft has a Knowledge Base article at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q254914
acknowledging the problem and explaining how to fix it (you need to delete and re-add a new registry entry).
This looks like a different message than the one you got, but I figured it may be related.
