clamav uses the zlib library for handling zip files, and it has had no enhancements (nor is it likely to, last I heard) in this direction. I have been pondering how hard it would be to port clamav to use the infozip routines instead, but it looks like a fair amount of work, and I am not sure how portable the infozip stuff is, or how well packaged (Debian doesn't ship the shared libraries at present, not sure about other distros). The advantage of infozip is that it seems to support a wider variety of zip file formats, but there are obvious disadvantages as well. Comments from others in the community about this idea would be appreciated. Sorry I can't be more helpful to you, John, but there it is. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | I just forgot my whole philosophy of | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | life!!! | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
