....the glitch appears to be caused when older VirusScan engines install DAT 5664...
Maybe that has something to do with who is affected, the VirusScan engine version? |

| Yes, but I'm not sure what that means. Periodically, McAfee installs an updated engine, and newer DAT files won't run on the older engine. Did some cross check go wrong? Or does "engine" mean something different from what McAfee calls its engine? -- AT&T dsl; Speedstream 5100b modem; openSuSE 11.0; firefox 3.0.11 |
