McAfee VirusScan 6.00.0 for Unix is now out

[Randal, Phil]

Hi folks,

McAfee have released version 6.00.0 of their Unix commandline virus
scanners (available from the corporate downl;oad portal with your McAfee
grant number).

This supports the avvdat pattern formats used by VirusScan 8.5 and 8.7
on windows, and will need an update to the McAfee autoupdate script in
MailScanner.

Users will need to upgrade by the end of March 2010 when the old DAT
formats used by earlier versions of uvscan will no longer be provided by
McAfee.

If I get a chance next week, I'll have a look at the mcafee-autoupdate
script to see what changes are needed.

Cheers,

Phil
