## 14.1 Integrated McAfee Anti-Virus

Check Scan mail using McAfee Anti-virus engine in the Antivirus tab of the internal version.[4]

Check for updates every

  Interval for automatic update of the antivirus database and of the antivirus itself (in hours). Information about updates can be found in the Security log (see chapter 25.4 Security).

  To enable automatic updates well-working connection to the Internet must be provided. Automated dialing is not supported. In case of dial-ups we recommend you to perform updates by hand (see below).

  Virus definition updates are downloaded via HTTP. If the Kerio MailServer is behind a firewall you must allow for outbound communication over an appropriate TCP port (port 80 by default).

  Click Update now to start the update of the virus database and antivirus software manually. When this button is pressed, the update progress window is displayed.

  ### Note

  The update progress window can be closed anytime by pressing the OK button (it is not necessary to wait until the update is finished).

Current virus database is ...

  The time that has elapsed since the last successful update of the virus database (with an accuracy of minutes).

Last update check performed

  The time elapsed from the last successful update attempt. The fact whether a new version has been available on the server is irrelevant.

  ### Warning

  If the time is significantly (several times) greater than the interval set for automatic update, then the automatic updates are not working correctly. In this case we recommend updating the database manually and to inspect the Error and Security logs for a failure explanation.
