Could it be an idea to request possibility to list an alias in the output.
For example if one is running both f-prot and clamav, and want one
statistic. Then you might want to tell clamav to list the f-prot alias in
log.
If it were a vote, I'd prefer separating the aliases from clamav's database. Either allow the ability to integrate them (conf file setting?) at runtime, or have a web database that an admin could refer to for a full "encyclopedia" of info.
I'd bet that to make it all useful, having all the known aliases with each virus included in the database would really bloat it...and with the number of people downloading from the servers via cron jobs, wouldn't it save a bit of load on the clamav servers?
Could this be achieved by having a table for aliases for the different av-tools?
Do "they" assert IP rights over the names of viruses? Or will they in the future? I don't know if other vendors would be overly irritated with other vendors using their names as AKA's for viruses (it would really be helpful if there were a central naming authority...)
