This is a really cool project, virus scanners are so big and commercialized that a free one, if it has the right features (stuff like realtime scan and whatnot -- I haven't got a clue if it does or not), it can do well. Just thought people might be interested in the free alternative :) | December 8, 2004, 2:25 AM |
| Stealth | Neat! I wonder how it compares to other free offerings like my personal favorite Avast! or AVG? | December 8, 2004, 3:16 AM |
| iago | I've never heard of nor tried those. I like that this compiled/ran on Linux :) | December 8, 2004, 3:38 AM |
| EpicOfTimeWasted | No, clamav doesn't have realtime scanning (I'm assuming you're talking about scanning files as they're accessed). It's an excellent virus scanner though. I've ran it on my (relatively low traffic) mail server for about six months now, and it hasn't missed a beat yet. It's even caught some trojans, which even some commercial virus scanners can't always claim to do. | December 8, 2004, 4:07 AM |
| iago | [quote author=EpicOfTimeWasted link=topic=9822.msg91480#msg91480 date=1102478820] No, clamav doesn't have realtime scanning [/quote] Somebody should write it, then. I wonder how hard it would be to add that kind of functionality. | December 8, 2004, 4:09 AM |
| Newby | Giving it a run in Windows. I'll see how it fares. :) Well, *refrains from swearing* it's a great way to lock your computer up. :( | December 8, 2004, 5:00 AM |

| LW-Falcon | I like my McAfee Virusscan | December 8, 2004, 1:02 PM |
| iago | McAfee is welfare. We got their IPS system at work for a pilot, and their software doesn't even work, so they got us to send them an error log, and they gave us an email address which doesn't work. So we've gone for over two weeks without being able to get it to work. This doesn't reflect well on McAfee as a whole :) | December 8, 2004, 1:31 PM |
| EpicOfTimeWasted | Yeah, I'm bringing up a dead thread, but clamav is worth it. I checked my spam catch mailbox today, and found a phishing e-mail in it. Checked the full headers for the e-mail, and saw: [quote]X-Amavis-Alert: INFECTED, message contains virus: HTML.Phishing.Bank-91[/quote] That's pretty damned neat when it can detect phishing attempts. | January 29, 2005, 6:33 PM |

| JoeTheOdd | iago, you have a collection of viruses you just leave there? Do you have an anti-virus that makes it so they can't do any spreading or something? | January 30, 2005, 4:06 PM |
| LW-Falcon | *hint* look at the topic name ;) | January 30, 2005, 5:49 PM |
| Kp | First, that's a Linux system he's running on and those're Windows viruses, so they couldn't infect that system even if he did try to run them. Second, it's quite safe to have a virus on disk as long as you don't run it. | January 30, 2005, 5:51 PM |

Second, it's quite safe to have a virus on disk as long as you don't run it. [/quote] That's correct. I save all the viruses I find in my email/otherwise for no good reason.

| Intangir | seems good, sometimes the update servers are done and i get an error report but mostly it works fine (it auto downloads updates, if the servers are up) no viruses have gotten thru our email, but then again i doubt anyone is really sending viruses to our email ;) i should probably check and see if it has logged virus mail attempts | January 31, 2005, 5:35 PM |
| Intangir | wow apparntly it has stopped a whole ton of viruses looks like lately alot Worm.Zafi.D and Worm.SomeFool.P some Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd and Worm.Mydoom.F hehehe cool ;) | January 31, 2005, 5:40 PM |
| Intangir | hrmm today a virus slipped thru it.. McAfee caught it and says its: W32/Bagle@MM!cpl | February 2, 2005, 7:13 PM |
