Hi,
It is not automatically updating because to update, this needs to happen:
1. download source
2. ./configure --with-your-specific-options
3. make
4. stop clam daemon
5. Maybe stop or pause other programs, like amavisd or your mail server
6.
among others.
Best regards,

As far as I can tell there is nothing wrong with this. In fact I've
seen this quite alot.
The GPL does not prevent anyone from making money.
Nothing prevents the author

Anonymous cvs should be ok though.

If public DNS isn't allowed, you aren't going to be able to look up the IP
addresses associated with the database mirrors, so http isn't going to work
either. In fact, without DNS, you don't really have an Internet connection.
. Am I right ?
If not, as public DNS isn't allowed, I'll have to hack around more... :-(

You'll just be generating unnecessary mail. In the case of most

As you can see, clamscan catches the worm, while clamdscan doesn't. I checked more

location of clamdscan? Where should I change it?
Do you
systems using clamav and want them to be
in sync. So I put some glue around freshclam that compares the cvd
contents before and after a freshclam run and if a diff is found update
the 4 systems using rsync and mail the changes to me (new, removed and

The decryption routine in the virus should be constant, shouldn't it ?
Although matching on this code might lead to false positives on some
