Hi good people. I am not the cluiest here. Suddenly my fbsd 4.7. qmail router/gateway is dead slow and ps -ax reports all normal procs plus heaps! of procs like... 5567 (some flags) 0:00:02 qmail-remote hotmail.com reaf_ha99@smmc.qld.edu.au The address is one of my user email accounts on qmail What is this? Is it possible FBSD has a virus or is it a suddenly rougue/corrupted qmail. Wher else can I look to track this down. I have ipfilter/ipmon/ipnat on it too. I disconnected router from internal LAN and rebooted and after a while it started doing it again! So it is something on the machine. Help please needed badly...typical..its mission critical in our school Thanks Keith
