Hi Graham,

I have yet to install clam av, but I just wanted to point out that the viruses being detected are most likely windows viruses that would pass through a linux system without being able to cause any harm.

The reason clam av detects these is because linux is often used as a mail server which often has windows clients.

Hope you get your problem resolved, and happy new year!

Wish it were that simple. I'm not running a mail server with windows clients. This is a dual booting stand alone machine and I never use windows for downloading mail. (In fact I use it as little as possible.)

Do the names Worm.bagle.AP, Worm.Somefool.P, SCO.A mean anything here?

As I mentioned, klamav claims to be able to quarantine messages containing viruses and worms but the component klammail doesn't seem to exist on my system - ideas, anyone?
