Troubleshooting

Check the Task Manager. The following process should be running:

„

fswebuid.exe

2.

If you try to connect to the F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft 
Exchange Web Console from a remote host, make sure that the 
connection is not blocked by a firewall or proxy server.

D.4.1

Installing Service Packs

If you wish to install a Microsoft Exchange Server Service Pack and 
F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange is already installed, stop 
F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange before installing the Service 
Pack and restart it after the Service Pack installation. 

D.4.2

Securing the Quarantine

Problem:

I have installed F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange and I'm 
worried about security of the local Quarantine storage where stripped 
attachments are quarantined. What do you recommend me?
