Should ClamAV be running while Email & iCal turned off?

I have a 10.6.5 Xserve with errors logged about the ClamAV installation begin outdated. The server incorrectly had iCal server running (but never used), which I have turned off, expecting it to also stop the ClamAV errors. Even after a reset to ensure the new launchd settings were loaded I still receive update errors every 6 hours from ClamAV (while some other ClamAV messages have stopped).
I do not want this machine for iCal or Email serving, so I'm wondering why ClamAV is even running.
Does ClamAV look for updates irrespective of if it's being used, or was it activated by iCal and for some reason hasn't stopped now?
Is it as easy as turning email service on and off?
Should I disable ClamAV in launchd?
other thoughts?

Hi,
Clam runs on an OS X server no matter if it it used or not. It doesn't do any harm, so you can ignore it. If you want, you could deactivate it in launchd, should not affect anything else. I'd just leave it there and let it jabber away into the logs...log space is cheap, and the second you will activate/install a service that relies on Clam, you will regret having spent time deactivating it after you spent time until you remember that you deactivated it and reactivated it then...

    Hello nothingspecial,
         We know how important it is to have your e-mail settings working properly. After all, there are times in which notifications may not be desired. I'm eager to partner with you to get this resolved for you. Let's start with what software and android version do you have installed on the Galaxy S 4? Can I assume that you are using the default e-mail app? If you can share this info as well as advise if we are working with a work or personal AOL e-mail then we can customize a solution for you.
    Thank you...

  • After the battery run out my iPad turns off

    My iPad turns off when the battery run out. Then I plug-in it for recharging. iPad start with Appel sight then switch off again. Then again start with Appel and off again. So it is not stoping on/off and not recharging. The USB cord is good, other devices recharging properly. That to do?

    Plug your iPad into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

    my ipad froze during update. cant turn off. any suggestions?

    If you're sure that the update isn't still happening then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • How can i find my ipod while it's turned off

    how can i find my ipod while it's tunred off ?

    See bold below
    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Run script after Network turns off

    Hi all,
    i have a problem with my Network which will not reconnect after suspend or when it is turned off by hardware switch. I already figured out that the problems do not appear when wpa_supplicant is killed right before suspend/hardware switch.
    So, what i now want to do is, to kill wpa_supplicant when suspend/hardware switch is used and right after network stops. The Problem is: I have no clue about how to achieve this.
    I read a bit about systemd and service-files in the wiki but I'm not really sure how to implement this (especially which targets etc. i should use)!
    Thanks for your help!

    Not an answer since I couldn't slightly understand what you were saying but considering it is a laptop, and not tweaked for the subject, TLP is a software that can disable and enable your wifi card before suspend, non-activity for a period or enable after waking up, powering on et alii. It has a commenting configuration file and well documented in wiki. Maybe you should try it.

    Yes you can shutdown as many times per day as you like
    Yes you can use it plugged in even if the battery shows 100%, as per Apple guide on batteries here: http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
    They recommend you use the battery and allow it to drain to below 40% of capacity atleast once a month to in their words 'keep the juices flowing' and for longterm storage where you won't be using the device, they recommend you unplug it and let it drain to about 50% before shutting it down and not using it for a long period of time ie: 6 months

  • Turn off email or turn off email alert sounds

    I was wondering if there is a way for the Black Berry program to send emails only during a certain time period. I’d like to stop them at about 10:00 PM and start back at about 7:00 AM if it can. But still get calls a text messages.

    do you have emails set up via BES or BIS?  depending on device you can go to options and then network and set data service to OFF and turn it back in the morning, this can be done only manually, cant specify time.

  • After logging off I get the message Firefox is still running please disconnect or turn off your computer

    When I logg off firefox I cannot logg on until waiting for a couple of minutes.
    this is the message I receive....Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.
    I have noticed this problem with other computers being used by other people. Also I cannot open several windows at a time, I always loose rhe original window or web site.

    If you try to immediately open Firefox after closing it, you may get this message. I does take a few seconds to completely close.
    Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

  • Should the iPhone drain the batterie if turned off?

    Hi,
    i think my iPhone has a not very good working battery or something else is wrong:
    If i charge it until it's full and then turn it off (with holding the sleep button and then slide to power off), if i then turn it on again after about 2 hours the battery icon is about 20% less then full.
    That's not normal, or?
    I restored it yesterday with firmware 1.02.

    I might have agreed with you "everything on" analysis until yesterday.
    While at the auto dealership waiting on a repair I was browsing the web, looking at YouTube, making a couple of calls of 30 minutes or more, with BTooth turned on the entire time, NO SMS, NO WiFi, looking at the stock market, etc., and I happened to notice the battery had been discharged to a level of only ~60%.
    This was in a 3 hour period of time.
    Never had gone that low since acquiring the iPhone and I continually charge my battery in accordance with the Apple instructions.
    By the way, nice Avator.

  • Does the iTouch battery discharge while it is turned off?

    I've fully charged my 32 GB iTouch and then not used it for several days. When I turn it on the battery is almost dead. Why is the battery discharging while it is off? How can I stop this?

    This issue is revisited in several threads on this forum. You can read a myriad of theories but to my estimation, the only real answer can be found in [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11987618#11987618|Th e sad truth about iPod/iPhone battery life].
    It basically boils down to using iTunes to perform the "Restore" to factory settings.
    The fact of the matter is that it could be WiFi, Notifications, multi-tasking (even if 2nd Gen iPods do support it) or a thousand other things. The only thing I can save for sure is that there are deep, system level settings that are either corrupt or, most likely, obsolete. Settings that vary so widely from user to user that the only one can be certain that they have all been eliminated is to flush them all and start over.
    Not a very scientific solution, but an effective one.
    If you find this suggestion ludicrous and unreasonable, feel free to read my other posts on the topic. You'll find me to be a confederate.

  • I lost my phone while it was turned off, so find my iphone doesn't work. Is there anyway that Apple have a failsafe where they can turn the iPhone on so it shows up. The phone hasn't been turned on since I lost it and while I was on the way to the airport

    It happened on the way to the airport. I went for my pocket when we were checking in and it wasn't there. I'd turned it off to save battery for the flight and when we got home I checked the house and it wasn't there. I think it may have fallen out in the taxi but we called them and the driver driver said he couldn't find anything. It hasn't been turned on since I last turned it on. But I was wondering can Apple remotely turn my phone on in any way possible?

    There is no way of communicating with a phone which is switched off, therefore there is no way to tell it to turn itself on.
