Hi I was wondering if GFI was working on a better way to block malware/trojans and bot nets? For example if one goes to http://malwaresucks.org it is not blocked by Webmonitor but my anti malware solution cathes it. I have seen this many times with the Personal Antirus 2010 hijacker.
Thanks
Steven Myers

Do you know which AntiVirus engines you currently have enabled / licensed within GFI WebMonitor?

We have all three enabled and licensed. It seems to be bypassing the virus scanner somehow.

HTML is not set to be scanned (default). Should I make a change there?

Yes, try scanning HTML (but make sure you DISABLE the Download Status Notification window for this file type)
