Re: [clamav-users] detection of really old viruses?
Naresh, Please do not reply to every thread on the ClamAV list asking for help.

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.

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