• malware files on your system

    ray,

    you have info.zip and photo.scr files in numerous files areas on your system, US 99 BBS... they are known malware files... AFAICT, they've been on your system since Jan and Feb 2016... you really really really need to remove them and add those names to your text/file.can file...

    you might also want to add qlr.dat if your system is a QWK network hub...

    That's why I don't allow uploads (except to the sysop, which users can't access). But it's still worth adding those filenames to the file.can file anyway.

    you might also want to add qlr.dat if your system is a QWK network
    hub...

    Thanks, just added that one here, I had the other two.

    They were both already in my .can file from the install.

    Added this one to the list.

    Mark,

    Those files are already listed in the file.can and I can not locate either file on the system drive. These are likely just in the database, but not phisically on the system. I need to remove them from the file area(s).


    After replying here, I found the messages stating how to remove them from
    the database and have since removed them, as missing files.

    you might also want to add qlr.dat if your system is a QWK network
    hub...

    I am not, but I did add this one. Thanks!
