You need to weigh up the pros and cons of using the maximum number of =
files
to scan in a compressed files option in any product. You have to ask
yourself, if I extract all these files, what are the chances the =
infected
file will be picked up by the real-time scanner against the option of
scanning every single file in a compressed file and overutilising the =
CPU
and memory resources on the server. Serverprotect is one of =
TrendMicro's
first AV to corporate market and did not get much major development =
since
release. Serverprotect has now been superceded by Officescan 7.x (which =
is
supported on servers). Maybe it's worth looking at whether Officescan =
has
the same issues and weigh up the risks of that issue in relation to the
security of the server. Is 500+ files in a zip file that has not been
scanned a real threat / security breach?

Some people say this method works also on Trend Micro InterScan =

you
use one of these and can able to test.
