MYDOOM

Post by Grumpydoug »

I use AVG on my system as well... But I also use MEFilter, and it strips out the virus and will delete, remove or hold the messages with these types of extentions.

" Knock on wood " I haven't had one get through yet...

Hope this helps...

Extensions

Post by Grumpydoug »

I haven't added any extensions to the " MEFilter.cfg ", I'm using the default ones Martyn built into the file. So far I haven't had one virus get through the server (Knock on wood). I am getting a lot of messages in the " AttFilter " folder though...

i'm using the free version of avg, and it's catching it everytime. is your avg catching other virus's? Can you look at a log file of what avg is doing?
