  • 1.  SEP detects *.DTF files as virus...

    Posted Mar 31, 2011 12:18 PM

    SEP has been detecting Trojan.Malscript!html and Downloader weekly on our Lotus Notes server.  It is always on the same weekday at around the same time, and this is not during SEP's scheduled scan.  Each detected file is a *.DTF file located in a Notes temp folder in C:\WINDOWS\Temp.

    This has just started in mid-February and I do not know of any changes made to Notes that would cause this.  Each time it is detected we delete the quarantined files, but it just comes back the next week.

     

    Has anyone else had a similar issue?  Any ideas on what would cause this and how to solve it?
