Exchange 2007 typical CPU utilization (store.exe)
in [Microsoft Exchange]

From: Luke on 8 Feb 2010 17:16 Hi Rich, I am asking around on the Kaspersky support forums now to find out if there is a way to update without scanning, but the only settings I can find is to specify only scan emails newer then X months.. which I dont like the idea of either. It is also not meant to scan messages that are already scanned on the Transport level.. but who knows what it actually does. This product is licensed with our desktop software, so to purchase a whole new product with licensing would be a hard sell. Anyway, this'll have to do for now. Cheers!
