Hey Mike, Has anything "slipped" past our AR15.com e-mail anti-virus system? (were any of the virii from your AR15.com e-mail account?) On average, our AR15.com "Team Members" receive a COMBINED total of aproximately 60-100 virus/worm/trojan contaminated e-mail per day. Although nothing is really 100% foolproof, I haven't heard of any instances where our system allowed contaminated messages to go through to our users. On our Anti-Virus Gateway Server, we use Declude / Sophos & F-Prot to scan all inbound and outbound mail for potentially harmful content. The original e-mail and attachment get deleted and a warning message gets sent to the sender AND the recipient. AND..., just to ensure that we stay as current as possible, we update both anti-virus scanning apps every 45 minutes. Please let me know !! Thanks. Oops.. forgot: To test our (and your) anti-virus scanning capabilities, Declude offers a web based tool that will send you a "simulated" (eicar) virus.
