Thread: V9 and Mcafee Secure Major issues

Anyone out there use V9 and also Mcafee Secure?

My site is consistently brought to a screeching hault everytime Mcafee scans me. I have another site (V8) that has no issues. Both are on the same server. The only way to get my V9 site back is to recycle the app pool.

Mcafee says they only simulate 5 users doing various things on the site.

Anyone?

Vortx - do you know if V9 has been stress tested?

I have started (in last month) having issues where their scan creates blank customer accounts during the scan. I am using version 8. Are you getting this also?

Hi uptime,

I assume by "blank customer records" you mean anonymous accounts. If so, yes I do see a LOT of anonymous accounts being created in both V8 and V9. However, V8 handles the mcafee scans with grace and comes out at the end without a sweat. V9 simply throws its hands up in defeat.

Vortx is going to work with Mcafee to see if they can track down what the cause is.

I also get lots of Anon accounts, but I was referring to customer registered accounts under the email "webappscanner@mcafeesecure.com". I am getting two or three of these each day now under version 8.

Has anyone ever resolved this? We recently upgraded to v9.3 and we also have an issue during McAfee scans. The site doesn’t crash but becomes completely unresponsive for about 5 minutes. We know for a fact that it is happening during the McAfee scan.
