Will someone from Sunbelt please post on this thread when the update that addressed this issue is released? Thank you. I really want to use this software but cannot until this issue is solved.

Sunbelt, did this ever get resolved? The blanking of ports didn't work for me.

ninja sunbelt definition update

Are Ninja "Sunbelt Antispam" updates not working? I'm getting the Cloudmark ones ok as well as the antivirus plugin updates. Last Sunbelt antispam plugin update was listed as 2008-08-17 5:30.

Ninja sent me notifications that the definitions are over 24 hours old.

Tried using blank ports as suggested but problem still exists. Attempted Sent email sits in outbox with, strangely, no date (date = 'none'). – geezlouise, on August 18, 2008 18:48

I also run XP Pro sp3. Pretty amazing that vipre will wake up my hibernated (off, not hybrid) laptop to update itself. Mine is scheduled for every 2 hours and like detlefk it seems to turn on per that schedule.

Is there a way to disable this behavior without turning off auto update?

Hibernation. Which writes memory to disk and powers off laptop, so not like it has any power going to the laptop. By design, I could even remove battery and it would remain in hibernation state. – geezlouise, on August 01, 2008 19:54

I would thing that auto updates and scans would be a default scenario. If that somehow causes a powered off computer to come back on, I think that would be a serious problem. – geezlouise, on August 01, 2008 18:34

by the way, when it hibernates it seems truly off, no lights on laptop. when it restarts it may be hours later and lid is closed so not like it thinks its in standby mode

With VIPRE installed laptop comes out of hibernation and starts up by itself

. This never happened before VIPRE and has not happened since uninstalling it. It happend numerous times. I have a toshiba R500.

A comment on the question "Email protection prevents retrieval of SSL email" in Sunbelt Software:

I've uninstalled product. But they suggested the following:

We may have a solution for you. If your outlook account is using SSL security, then please change the port numbers in VIPRE to blank numbers. You will get an error message that says that you have entered an invalid port number. Just click ok and the port will remain blank. Once this is set, please click ok on the AV email settings and then ok again on the VIPRE settings. Please let me know how this works out for you. Yes, your email should still be scanned by VIPRE.

Thank you,

Email protection prevents retrieval of SSL email

Email protection stops email downloads. I am using SSL ports 995 for pop3 and 465 for smtp. I configured this in advanced settings and email client (outlook) cannot

Outgoing server requres authentication and both in and out use SSL.

Frequent popups on file access, no way to teach vipre

When enable "Check files when they are opened..." feature, i get frequent popups "Vipre Notification: On File Access" telling me that an unknown file was allowed to open. BUT no way to add the file to an allowed list, so it keeps popping up unless i disable checking files when they are opened. Is this a bug?
