After removing DrWeb I’m now getting the following cron job error emailed to me:
/bin/sh: /opt/drweb/update.pl: not found

restore QMail prefs with mchk util:

./mchk -without-spam

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

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

from this site I found you can stop the annoying emails.

but for me, i’m deleting the annoying thing!

rm drweb-update

bye — bye —
