I know that Google sets a time limit on it’s database which doesn’t allow a detection to be reported unless the database meets that limit. I would assume that ClamAV enforces such limits and that any user who has enabled SafeBrowsing has not been actually protected by this database since November.
Does ClamAV ignore that setting and not waste time using the out-of-date SafeBrowsing CVD to scan files or check for an update or do they need to turn it off in configuration files?
