LogSat Software has partnered with NORMAN (www.norman.com) to provide optional antivirus protection for email traffic.

The antivirus plug-in is be available for purchase separately from SpamFilter ISP and is an optional component. Unlike SpamFilter ISP's licenses, the antivirus plug-in is offered as a subscription service with a yearly subscription fee of $400.

An Activation Code is required to enable the antivirus plug-in. A 15-day trial Activation Code can be obtained from SpamFilter's GUI on the Settings - Antivirus tab. The code is required only for the antivirus plug-in activation. SpamFilter (both retail and free versions), will continue to work and stop spam even without the antivirus plug-in. Please note that only one request for a trial code will be honored per installation.

Technical notes - SpamFilter can run with or without the antivirus plug-in. When SpamFilter starts, it will check for the plug-in files. If they are found, antivirus support will automatically be enabled. We recommend installing the antivirus plug-in after installing SpamFilter. Restart SpamFilter after installing the plug-in to activate it.

The antivirus plug-in is a set of 3 DLLs that are to be installed in the SpamFilter directory: dwnse.dll, ncl.dll and nselapi.dll. In addition to those files, the Norman scan engine needs to be present. If a Norman product is not already installed on the server, the installer adds the necessary files (including the virus definitions) in the SpamFilter\nse directory.

There are 2 additional DLL's that are placed in the SpamFilter directory by the install program: libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll. These DLLs are used by the antivirus plug-in. If performing a manual install please make sure you copy these files to the SpamFilter directory.
