Abstract
A software agent for detecting and removing computer viruses located in attachments to e-mail messages. A client-server computer network includes a server computer and a plurality of client computers. A message system, located at the server computer, controls the distribution of e-mail messages. An anti-virus module, located at the server computer, scans files for viruses. The agent is located at the server computer and provides an interface between the anti-virus module and the message system. The agent can operate both on a real-time basis and at preset period intervals. E-mail messages that are sent internally within the network can be scanned, e.g., Intranet e-mail messages. In addition, e-mail messages received over the Internet can be scanned.
