I agree with the request to allow disabling the
plugin. This should be more in line with other
Outlook plugin functions.

However, I have noticed that messages appear to be
scanned in Outlook EACH time I select them, open,
etc. For messages with attachments, this can be VERY
slow. Even messages that just have a simple logo or
HTML signature, but for messages with multiple
attachments, Outlook is frozen entirely for minutes at
a time, making me want to completely remove Clamwin.

Might I suggest there be some way to only scan
messages only when they arrive or otherwise mark them
so they are not scanned needlessly repeatedly?

Thanks!

    I couldn't agree more,

    please, please, please make those 2 amandments:
    1. dynamic enable/disable within outlook.
    2. scan only unread messages.

    the current situation may force us (my small and open
    source embracing company) to unwillingly search for another
    solution. we are great fans of clamwin, it would be a shame.

    please consider the people's voice ;-)

    Kindly,
    DaberElay.

    Exact same situation for me.

    Please, please, please make at least one of those 2 amendments:

    scan only unread messages

    Network administrator in a french NGO, for the moment little
    less than 100 users with Clamwin installed... and growing
    complaints I'm not going to be able to contain much longer.

    I too will soon be forced by my boss to search for another
    solution...

    Anyway, thanks a lot for the work accomplished so far.

    Adding my vote to request for this enhancement :)
    Being really free software, Clamwin is doing something great so I'm gonna stick with it..

    Running 0.90.1.
    Cheers,
