Sorry to tell your guys, but it appears not only are there problems with English, but there does not appear to be any intention for Suse to provide "Protection" from any Virus by using the definitions of ClamAV. If you have further thoughts on this issue, please, now is the time to voice them in the bug at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=270581 Morning to all 09:06 GMT+10 Registration Account wrote:

Just finished testing and bug reported the following incident re clamAV. Despite the boxed version featuring "protection of viruses" this is NOT the case. The service real-time service clamd running it will NOT detect malicious code so if you get an email or file and send it on to anyone - it will NOT be identified to you. There is either an obvious issue with the service OR its intended functionality - However the word "Protection" abounds. The only way of detection is to run clamscan from console see clamscan --help for options. If you want to scan a few GIGs of Data - Take the day off while it completes - Its that slow. Also IF you rely on clamAV to detect malicious code via either HTTP or HTTPS file action from a possibly infected server of yours - it wont. - The requester may? You can verify this via virus test http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm I have marked the bug as critical for obvious reasons. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=270581 Perhaps someone else could verify if there is any detection provided by SAMBA on-line scanning and open yet another bug Cheers Scott - Votes would help bug if your concerned by this issue. :-\
