Well in out ever ongoing attempt to keep the servers here clean of virus' sometimes it can be just a little funny. As I'm sure you are already aware we have any number of servers, web servers, mail server, back up servers, radius servers, servers for shopping carts, servers just to test server software on...I think you get the idea.
Well we have been testing a program called Prevx, they are according to them a leader in Malware research. Ooh, ooh, I just got a new definition for malware that at least makes more sense to me. Malware is virus and adware put together, pretty cool eh?
Anyway, Prevx is a program we are testing and we found after 2 weeks this little log file showed up on machines using Prevx, so we got concerned: "What is this, why is it here, is it to do with Prevx? Is it something Prevx isn't blocking? Whaddup homey? So we did a search on the net, nadda. In fact the only thing we could find was the post that we created on the net....which was pretty funny since we posted, waited a day did a new search and we got all excited that something showed up only to find it was our question. Ironic if nothing else.
So, Prevx answered today to say: "Damn you found a problem, it doesn't look to be a problem but yeah it shouldn't be there so we are taking care of it. So hat's off to the LTOL security dept, good job ladies and gentlemen.
We will keep you posted on Prevx.
