Mxuptime.com Server Migration

In line for an introduction of new integrated Mxuptime Services (coming soon) we have migrated our main site to a brand new server located in Seattle and hosted under SoftLayer's Network. So far we've been pretty impressed with the services provided by SoftLayer. Their web based managed portal is equally impressive.

The current peering and backbone connections are as follows

Comcast Peering - 10G
Internap 1 - 10G
Internap 2 - 10G
Level3 - 10G
Qwest - 10G
SIX Peering - 10G
Verio/NTT - 10G

ps: If you do come across any discrepancies or issues with the new server please let us know.

Thanks
-Mxuptime Team

SaneSecurity Updates

As of Dec 14, 2008 Steve from SaneSecurity.com has announced that he will stop updating his signatures due to personal reasons and a Ddos attack. As such we are recommending that MxScan Professional users disable their SaneSecurity Updates by setting the Update Interval under the Sanesecurity tab to O(zero).

We have also placed online the most recent copy of their signatures which you can download and replace at C:\Program Files\MxUptime\MxScanME\clam\share\clamav \*.ndb

The 2 files can be download from here at http://www.mxuptime.com/SaneLatest.zip

We would like to thank Steve for his contribution towards the Online AntiSpam community for his great work and hope to see him back again next year.

In the next build of MxScan the Sanesecurity Update Interval will be automatically disabled. The Sanesecurity module will still be available and the current signatures will still be usefull, however over time its effectiveness will decline as new spam patterns emerge.

We are looking at several options and will provide an update when available on the next course of action
