Performance Suggestion with MS A/V scanning for Julian

[TCIS List Acct]

Hi Julian,

Here is a thought --

When using multiple A/V scanners from within MS, would it be possible to:

1. Specify the order in which the A/V scanners are tried (this may already be 
the behavior based on order in the config, not sure).  The rationale for this is 
that some scanners are faster than others (e.g. f-prot is faster than clamav).

and, if

2. The first A/V scanner finds a virus, to not try any subsequent A/V scanners. 
  The reason for this is, 99.9% of today's viruses are removed rather than 
cleaned, so if the attached infected file is getting removed anyway, what point 
is there to wasting resources in passing the infected file to subsequent A/V 
scanners?
