For those of us who use it as an incoming mail scanner (which I seem to recall being the primary focus of clam from statements on this list) it matters a great deal. The rate of scanning has to keep up with the rate of incoming mail, or you have an ever-growing backlog. Also, the time difference isn't just 100ms vs 20ms -- there are some OLE documents that in the past have taken minutes to scan. I think most of these problems are solved now, but I wouldn't want to add back any solution that increases the time. Further, signatures are one thing, but in a server environment you do not want code to be updated automatically. Code updates usually have to be rolled out, tested first on a test server, then put into production. ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (914) 948-3162 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/ _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
