With quite a big probability, one can say that we add some ancient virus every day. At least we try to. Although new viruses has a higher priority, one of our goals is to improve ClamAV's detection "width" in general. > I'm not asking for precise figures, just something a little more concrete > than "we add old and new viruses". It varies, really. But it can be said that amount of older viruses added to our database is significant. -- Tomasz Papszun SysAdm @ TP S.A.
