This has already been diskussed many times, but how many of those 77.000 viruses are actually distributed by email, which is the primary usage for ClamAV? How many of those 77.000 viruses hava actually been seen the latest decade?
The ClamAV database only includes newer viruses, that has been seen in the wild lately, thats why it has a lot fewer viruses in it's database.

Thank you!
Why is the date listed below more than 5 months old?
Ok... so I guess there's quite a large discrepancy... most commercial AV have tens of thousands of signatures. For example, RAV has 77000 signatures.
Is there any chance that clamAV will "catch up" anytime soon?
Thanks again. Ricardo
