After months of painful emails about Dr. Web updates, I finally found a solution:<\/p>\n

Log in as root (or you can use sudo) and open \/etc\/drweb\/drweb32.ini:<\/p>\n

Look for:
\nCronSummary = Yes<\/code><\/p>\n

And change it to:
\nCronSummary = No<\/code><\/p>\n

Do a restart for the Dr. Web daemon by (add sudo in the beginning if not using root):
\n\/etc\/init.d\/drwebd restart<\/code>
\nThat should do it! Seems so easy once you know it.
\nPlease do leave a comment if this works for you \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The problem:<\/h2>\n

Just a bit of background about the problem. I have been using Plesk 8.4 and been really happy with it. I’ve gone through all the versions but the latest one Plesk 9.3 had been sending me these weird emails:<\/p>\n
