Re: [sniffer] F-Prot and netsky

[Herb Guenther]

We use F-prot and it has worked well for us.  We have seen them quickly update the virus def files, but do not know about this particular instance.  However, since we have lots of activty on our mail servers, I do not think that it was sneaking thru as we would have gotten calls or emails about it. Herb Mike VandeBerg wrote: I was wondering if anyone else is using F-prot for their virus engine in declude, and what they now think about it. Netsky was discovered on the 18th, and F-Prot actually had it posted on their website as being discovered by them on the 19th. But they didn't update their definition files to actually catch it until early this morning. This meant that netsky ran rampant under F-Prots nose for 6 days. I feel this is completely unacceptable, and I am going to change my virus engine this week unless someone can tell me that there is a good reason why I shouldn't.   Any ideas or feedback from someone using F-Prot?
