I have no idea what Bill's script does. I read it once but it meanders. It could use a few well-placed subroutines. But since that script is ultimately what we are testing here it is probably a bad idea to depend on it to test itself. The simple test I provided does a quick third-party check outside your existing (perhaps flawed) processes. dp _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
