The statement made in reply Quote Not true. zolw@Wierszokleta:/tmp$ clamscan eicarcom2.zip eicarcom2.zip: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND ----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- Known viruses: 108083 Engine version: 0.90.1 Scanned directories: 0 Scanned files: 1 Infected files: 1 Data scanned: 0.00 MB Time: 3.126 sec (0 m 3 s) Indicates and tests identically, that ClamAV will ONLY fund malicious script whilst clamscan is performed. The real-time agent therefore serves no purpose in that it will not, either by functional design or fault, detect malicious code being downloaded. As such IF the real-time agent cannot identify malicious code we must provide GUI scanning options to the user. Especially as a result of advertising "Anti_virus" Protection on the boxed version. It would appear that Clamav do NOT want to enter into ANY discussion re- the real-time agent from the lack of response despite re-opening of bug and submitting further details. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
