Re: Again: Server Based Virus Protection

We are very happy with the Trend Microscan product available at
http://www.antivirus.com
We have it running on 3 AS/400's supporting a number of Domino partitions.
We have it download the latest virus pattern files 4 times a day.  It will
scan all incoming email.  It will also scan all Domino databases for
existing virus's.  Just this morning it reported several to me it's caught.
Would not run without it!

Yes, we've had problems with it in the past.  Even kept one of our servers
down for a few hours (no corruption, just a bug with a pattern file).
However they are very responsive and the Domino/IBM support personnel seem
to be 'Trend' aware.  But who hasn't had problems?  I can't begin to count
the number of incidents I've had opened with Domino (just celebrated a 5
month anniversary on one that is still open-LEI), or the number of pmr's
I've opened with IBM.  Or the number of times I've called my application
software vendors.  We'll just leave Microsoft alone...

Hello everyone,

I was wondering as to what's the scene like for  very reliable virus
protection for Domino on the As/400 without the risk of  database
corruption or CPU over utilization? :-)
