We have recently had a number of enquiries regarding computer viruses. It seems that
they are becoming more and more common these days, especially the E-mail variety.
Scothosts is able to provide industry-leading virus scanning for e-mail messages using our
servers in-house technology.
A virus can spread via e-mail messages extremely quickly. In May 2000, a virus called "Loveletter" spread to thousands of users world-wide in a matter of hours. E-mail borne viruses are becoming an increasing problem and in 2002 they are expected to rise by 234% and email use to grow by only 124%.
Scothosts is able to offer automatic virus scanning of all e-mail messages sent to websites hosted on our system. The scanning is done at the
network gateway level and is seamless to users. If a user should receive a message containing a virus, they are simply sent a generic notification and the
message is placed in a quarantine area for inspection later.
Our system automatically updates in real-time with the latest virus definitions
supplied my multiple virus scanning vendors.
The service is supplied at excellent value for money and once installed on a domain name, all messages
sent to that domain are protected. For example, if you purchase virus scanning on myname.com then any e-mail address @myname.com will be protected, e.g.:
john@myname.com or susan@myname.com
