Also when the auto-update runs there is activity showing in the WWW proxy in WinGate. It appears that eScan is trying to go to http://www.microworldsystems.com/sendinfo. Any ideas why the auto update would try to go to that URL?

A. http://www.microworldsystems.com/sendinfo/index.htm is a page which has the date and time of the last updated file.
MailScan Auto-Updater downloads this information after a scheduled interval to check whether new updates have arrived. Once MailScan gets this info, it then contacts one of the many FTP servers to download the latest update.
Microworld's FTP server is the first FTP-server to get updated.Updates are mirrored to all other FTP servers from our server.
If you disable Automatic Updates, the access to sendinfo will stop.

NOTE: This will happen only in eScan version 9.
