ok, forgive my lack of searching. Seems the EICAR pattern was updated in the DB, and we need to upgrade clamdwatch as well. At least this little incident forced us to upgrade clamav to the latest version, install GMP 4, and update clamdwatch. Of course the 5,000+ emails from clamdwatch was not fun to wade through. :) Thanks. Rob _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
