That's ALL the difference who make that Windows is an UN-stable
system :-)

The problem is when you force to upgrade an app to the last up-to-date
version, perhaps not very stable, you have to upgrade lot of piece of
software (libs) sometime not absolutely stable who make the whole system
unstable. That's all.

I will try to upgrade Clamav to the last compatible version with
MailScanner only if I don't have to upgrade to unstable libs.

Thanks for the discussion.

Sam.
