There doesn't seem to be any difference between the two versions. Just the piece of mind of licensing issues.
However do the following to have it use the client instead of launch a server everytime. This is only for fsecure 4.50 and QS 1.20rc versions. In your fsavd start script change the following: fsavuser=qmailq rundir=/tmp Then in the fsav.conf file change socketname to /tmp Next change this line: $DD=`$fsecure_binary $fsecure_verbose --archive --auto --dumb $scandir/$file_id 2>&1`; to $DD=`$fsecure_binary $fsecure_verbose --archive --auto --dumb --avp=off --usedaemon $scandir/$file_id 2>&1`; Now the --avp=off option can be used or removed. What this does is tell fsav to only use it's scanner. Otherwise it by default use the AVP and FSAV scanner on each message. This just seems to double the scan of every message. Thus slowing things down. Next make sure you restart the fsavd and then do a ./configure and have it install again. Then look over the qmail-scanner-queue.pl and make sure that the $fsecure_binary is pointed to the right directory. This is /usr/bin/fsav by default. Also for some reason the new Fsecure 4.50 puts the lib files in it's own directory. So you need to edit the /etc/ld.so.conf and add in the path to the fsav/lib directory and run ldconfig. This should speed things up.
