What is a Virus Protection Module?


A Virus Protection Module scans your e-mails before they reach your Inbox. E-mail
attachments are scanned for viruses, worms and Trojan horses. Script-based
components, such as Java and ActiveX are also scanned. Known
viruses are filtered out and infected files are cleaned.

1&1 uses Symantec CarrierScan Servers in our Data Centers, so new virus
definition files and remedies are available to us within a few hours via Symantec's
LiveUpdate.

Use our Virus list to see which viruses are currently known and can be filtered.
