EZ Trust Anti virus def update

Anyone having trouble getting def updates? I get a "550 No such directory" popup. Manual update also doesn't work.

The latest I have is 5729 and I know 5733 is there.

 

Yep. Must have server troubles.

 

Thanks Dave. I'll relax now....

 

same here, 550 no such folder, log in for manual update sticks in a loop

the talking safe (!) finally led me to a page for v6.1 only (!!) but as it looks though the problem's at their end I'll leave it for a while

I see they offer an upgrade to v6.3; does anyone know if that version avoids the problem, pls? I find Sammy rather hard to understand at the best of times...

best wishes, HJ.

 

Don't know anything about the upgrade yet Hugh. BTW, it's sure nice to see you on the boards again!

 

I'm running 6.3 and had the same problem this morning. Seems to be working now though.

 

glad to be back, Dave

...and glad the 550 is them not me - I've been round the login loop in the past when it was down to a setup problem at my end

reckon I'll try the upgrade to v6.3 (backup first) and see how it goes. Quite a while back I "upgraded" and it was a very different product, didn't like it anywhere near as much, far heavier on resources; too much for the dinosaur. But their next "major" upgrade was back to the good old InnoculateIT style UI.

will post back with results later

best wishes, HJ

 

If you are still using the old version of EZantivirus or EZArmor you can get the updated virus defs here ftp://ftp.cai.com/pub/myeTrust/sigs/10.5
I've been using the new version since it came out in July.

 

Hi all

autodownload now seems to work again, both v6.1 and (as far as I can tell) v6.3

v6.3 seems OK - a bit different to v6.1, it has extra functionality checking email as well - I got a bit of a surprise when I looked at Kerio

I sent myself the EICAR twice, once in the body of the email, once as an attachment

when the emails arrived, the EICAR in the message body was still there - but the attachment had been replaced with a small text file AntiVirusReport.txt telling me it had removed the "malware "

v6.3.0.9 doesn't seem unduly (?any) heavier on resources

noted:
- the "changes in this version" file says earlier version bug in email virus protection has been fixed.
- I've only downloaded defs the once so far, needed to complete setup and activate the product; but that download was ~2MB (so significantly larger than the aup_*.exe files for v6.1).

best wishes, HJ.

 

They will be smaller you were just playing catchup with the new install. I use EZarmor 2005, irked me when CA didn't upgrade the firewall for SP2 so I have to edit the boot.ini to use the firewall in startup. I like it way better than the SP2 firewall.
