Something does not sound right. An AV product for Exchange should either be
working through the API to protect the information store as messages come in
and out of it, or act like an SMTP gateway. Doing background scanning of
mailboxes on a continual basis does not sound right.
What is the exact product name you are using?

Yes I have the exchange antivirus add on. In fact we just upgraded from version
4.0. Actually one thing I liked better in version 4.0 was you could actively
initiate a scan of users mailboxes. This doesn't seem possible in version 7.0.
This version just seems to have the real time option. Although you can select
background scanning which I presume scans users' mailboxes on a continual basis
when the server is not busy

You have etrust 7 for antivirus for scanning the server... but do you have the
exchange mail antivirus add-on?

http://www.MSExchange.org/
Ever since last Friday when our Mail Server was flooded with SoBig.E viruses I
have had the following problem.
The server will run fine for 24 hours then will no longer process attachments.
The users get a message "cannot open attachments. I then reboot and everything
is fine again for about a day.
I have Exchange 5.5 with SP4 Running on a Windows 2000 SP3 member server.
We are running E-trust version 7 as our Antivirus Solution.
Has any one seen a similar problem?
The server has a lot of free disk space (25 gigs or so) so I don't think that's
the problem.
