FW1 was never intended to filter Email or stop the numerous email born viruses. The product can be adapted but it will not do it all. The best method to insure any virus threat is to scan 100% of all email with a good commercial email/virus gateway product. I use McAfee SMTP WebShield while others use Trend Micro and others use Brightmailetc.. There are several good product out there that will greatly enhance network security. The advantages in using these products are, no overhead on the Firewall, the ability to filter email content, selectively accept or block attachments or files, and lastly the ability to notify the sender that their email had a virus attached. This may not help in SPAM attached viruses but company contacts and valid email users will greatly appreciate the notification. Since we started to activlely scan 100 percent of all email plus block most attachments we have had no virus threat internal to the company in 18 months. -----Original Message----- From: GARRIDO, MANUEL [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 9:30 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] Klez Worm Importance: High Hi all, this is a S.O.S message. Our Company have been infected by Klez Worn. We have already cleaned it, but we need a rule with a SMTP resource in our firewall to stop the worm. Is there someone that know how to define this resource?
