<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi folks,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">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).</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">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.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">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.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">If I get a chance next week, I'll have a look at the mcafee-autoupdate script to see what changes are needed.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Cheers,</FONT>
