Naresh,

Please do not reply to every thread on the ClamAV list asking for help.  

Have you looked at the documentation page on CLamAV.net http://clamav.net/?

 AFAIK, definitions exist forever unless they have been found to cause
 False Positives.
 
 You can normally find the date a definition was added by searching
 the clamav-virusdb archive:
 http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-virusdb.en.html
 
 Confirmed;
 
 e.g. searching that list for CIH (a.k.a. Chernobyl, from about 1998
 or 99) shows W95.CIH-II.882 and some variants were added to the defs
 in about 2003.
 
 sigtool -l of the current main.cvd shows that these definitions are
 still present in current.
 
 Thanks,
 
 ~Felix.

[clamav-users] Which anti-virus do you prefer on Linux desktop?

2014-12-31 Thread Franklin Wang

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

I've tried nod32, Dr. Web, AVG, clamav(the only open source one?),
comodo, F-prot on the desktop(x86_64). Why can't I find reviews for
them? There're many reviews for Windows platform, but few for Linux
desktop, not server. Any suggestions? I'm using openSUSE now, with
rkhunter, AIDE, gpg installed.


Regards,


Franklin Wang
