No real-time scanning occurs on the Exchange store after you install Antigen

Important This article contains information about how to modify the registry. Make sure that you back up the registry before you modify it. Make sure that you know how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up, restore, and modify the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
256986  (http://kbalertz.com/Feedback.aspx?kbNumber=256986/ ) Description of the Microsoft Windows registry

SYMPTOMS

On a server that is running Microsoft Exchange Server, you install Microsoft Antigen 9.0 for Exchange or Sybari Antigen 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange. After you do this, no real-time scanning occurs on the Exchange store.

Note This problem occurs only if a third-party antivirus product, such as Trend antivirus software, was installed and then uninstalled on the server.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because a registry entry is incorrectly reset when the third-party antivirus product is uninstalled.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, follow these steps.

Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.
  1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
  2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\ServerName\Private-GUID
  3. Right-click VirusScanEnabled, click Modify, type 1, and then click OK.
  4. Repeat steps 2 through 3 for each Exchange Server database that is present on the server.
  5. Exit Registry Editor.
  6. Restart the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

The third-party products that this article discusses are manufactured by companies that are independent of Microsoft. Microsoft makes no warranty, implied or otherwise, about the performance or reliability of these products.

APPLIES TO
  • Microsoft Antigen for Exchange
  • Sybari Antigen 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

The reg key mentioned here is slightly misleading. Should be HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\<ServerName>\<Private-GUIDs>\VirusScanEnabled. Having this value set to 0 will stop Exchange passing any messages to Antigen for scanning! Please set to 1 (=enabled) and restart services. This is a value that Antigen never sets by default.
