It was this list where I first saw it announced, and I agree other discussions of it have been practically non-existent. https://blog.clamav.net/2020/06/the-future-of-clamav-safebrowsing.html > Your problem report looks well put together, but I wonder if there > might be a better place to post it.

Perhaps I should post in the github repo directly. I'm now seeing this has already been reported there, in fact, but no responses from the developers there either. https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-safebrowsing/issues/1 > As I think I told you recently, I abandoned the safebrowsing database > when it ceased to be part of the official ClamAV database set, largely > because up to that time its performance in the circumstances facing me > had been less than stellar and I couldn't justify the effort in trying > to continue to use it. > > Do you have any performance stats that you could share with us? I don't have any metrics yet because I've really only recently started using it. I'm going on the expectation that the developers/Cisco/ClamAV put the time into developing this and Google put the resources into keeping it updated because it was worthwhile, although despite there being 4+ million new signatures, I've also seen very little results thus far. There also hasn't been any development on it since it was first released in June. There's also no info on how often it's updated or what kind of efficacy one should expect. Thanks for your help, as always. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
