root@blue:/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin# ./mchk -without-spam didn't remove cron job error. but this seemed to deliver all Qmail queu... found the DrWeb cron job in /var/spool/cron/crontabs root@blue:/var/spool/cron/crontabs# ls -l total 52 -rw------- 1 daemon crontab 230 2010-10-12 16:30 daemon -rw------- 1 drweb crontab 224 2010-11-10 01:20 drweb -rw------- 1 fcc crontab 198 2009-11-11 22:05 fcc -rw------- 1 flight crontab 287 2010-04-30 00:55 flight -rw------- 1 house crontab 493 2010-03-30 18:29 house -rw------- 1 james crontab 229 2010-08-25 10:57 james -rw------- 1 kluser crontab 343 2009-06-04 12:01 kluser -rw------- 1 mail crontab 228 2010-10-12 16:30 mail -rw------- 1 mvc_admin crontab 349 2010-10-20 10:19 mvc_admin -rw------- 1 patriots crontab 198 2010-10-04 13:59 patriots -rw------- 1 qmaild crontab 230 2010-10-15 12:43 qmaild -rw------- 1 qmaill crontab 230 2010-10-15 12:43 qmaill -rw------- 1 root crontab 1039 2010-11-10 09:59 root removed the cron job - i'll see if this stops the emails. I'm afraid that the QMail cron or something is calling drweb. we'll see if this works.

root@blue:/home/primax# crontab -r -u drweb

this will remove the cron job for drweb... finally *might have* figured out how to get rid of the annoying drweb cron emails, "/bin/sh: /opt/drweb/update.pl: not found" solution found here Log in as root (or you can use sudo) and open /etc/drweb/drweb32.ini: Look for: CronSummary = Yes And change it to: CronSummary = No o.k. location of the stoopid DrWeb cron job, /etc/cron.d
