PROBLEM
Paul Van Dyke found following. When running a Nessus security
scan Paul discovered that Norton AntiVirus for Internet Email
Gateways for Windows NT will crash with an unusually long URL on
it's webserver. This service is a SMTP agent used to screen email
attachments for viruses. It s eems like a great idea, but it uses
an embedded webserver to configure the product after install.
During the Nessus scan, it has crashed every time rendering the
service unavailable with a Doctor Watson screen.
SOLUTION
Vendor was not contacted on this issue.
