Jose_Lisbon Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Hi. In History/All File Events I have dozens of yellow entries saying "lookup failed". Could someone explain what this means? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kstephen Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Hello Jose, There are 2 possible causes for the "Immunet 3.0 lookup failed" message in the History - All File Events view. Cause 1)The files were temporary files that were quickly deleted before they could be looked up. - An example might be a temporary cookie text file. Cause 2)The other cause may be the actual network lookup to see if the file is malicious failed. Cause 1) seems to be common as I see many temporary files showing up in the All File Events view regularly. This is normal behavior and is not a cause for concern Stephen Sourcefire - Immunet Employee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varador Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 I have the same problem and most of my files not scanning by immunet. What do you suggest? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritchie58 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi varador, I just viewed my files. Upon inspection a great many of these are temporary files created by my browser and other software. I would have to agree with Stephen that what you are seeing is normal activity and Immunet is still protecting you against genuine threats. Regards, Ritchie...
