What happens after the file has been deleted is the pain. I have unistalled
the VNC and tried to reinstall it. I get a 132 Error. Media Name: MEDIA.
It sugests that I check the permissions.
Any Ideas,
Scott

Subject: Re: Antwort: VNC + Mcaffee Virusscan
I corrected the problem putting the ORL directory on the exclude list of
Vshield
and renaming back WinVNC.exe.vir back to WinVnc.exe.
That was a lot of work,but worked well.
BTW,What about heuristics scanning? It's a valuable feature or can be
disabled
with no penalty to security? Disabling it gives me a gain in performance?
