Problem Description

Original Publishing Date: November 27, 2007

Solution

Trend Micro will stop supporting the DA5 pattern file for SSAPI 5.x on December 31, 2009. Products currently using the SSAPI 5.x and the DA5 pattern file will no longer receive pattern updates after this date.

SSAPI 6.x /DA6 anti-spyware solution supersedes SSAPI 5.x. This resolves the performance and memory concerns of SSAPI 5.x and is currently being included in upcoming product releases and updates.

Products Affected:

SMB

Client Security Messaging Suite for SMB 3.5 and 3.6

InterScan Gateway Security Appliance 1.0 and 1.5

Trend Micro Anti-Spyware SMB 3.2 SP1 (Already in EOL)

Virus Buster Business Security 3.5 and 3.6 Japan

Enterprise

 

OfficeScan 8.0

 

Trend Micro Anti-Spyware Enterprise Edition 3.0 SP2

 

Damage Cleanup Services (DCS) 3.2

In line with this, we strongly recommend upgrading your products before the end of service date. For more information, please contact Trend Micro Technical Support or refer to this KB entry:
