Currently, the server status page reports *uploader.oerc* and *cpdnupload2.oerc* as being down. Would that be the same ones causing the problems reported here?
2) Questions and Answers : Windows : Norman Virus Control (NVC 5.8) detecting .gz archives as possible ZIP-bombs (Message 24159) Posted 2 Sep 2006 by Lars Vindal Post: As subject says, some of the gzip files are detected as possible ZIP-bombs. In particular, it\'s these files: DMSNH3SO2A1B_19182082N.gz ozone_hadcm3_1919_2082.gz SULPC_OXIDANTS_19_A2_1990.gz I see three possible solutions to this: (1) Make the antivirus skip the project folder or individual files (2) Change the internal structure of the gzip files to avoid being seen as a possible ZIP-bomb (3) Contact the antivirus company to try resolving it on their end I guess alternative (1) is most relevant, but could option (2) be a way to go also? Last option could be done by me, but don\'t know how successfull it would be, since updated gzip parameter files might create the same problem over again. Any ideas?
