Hi Brendan,
Actually the latter.
I already looked a bit at the manpage and the help text of clamscan.
And maybe some other recommendations you might find that Windows users might
find useful.

there.
Also bigger zip files.
I have read that ClamAV stops scanning after a defined file size.
Are viruses generally at the start of a file or some traces of it?
Whats the recommended file size and file amount to set?
Any other options i might set?
Greetings and thanks,
Simon

It's been something like 2 months now and 0.98 still doesn't appear to have

"flagging it for rejection".

continue to ignore the warnings that updates have stopped working. If
they ignore "things aren't working" errors then I'd agree with you -
