Or, alternatively, a piece of metadata associated with each signature that indicates its category, which is returned as part of the results. Advantage: conceptually cleaner than messing with the name. Disadvantage: need to change calling methods to handle another return field; need to decide on categories; will eventually need to add categories. -- Kelson Vibber SpeedGate Communications <www.speed.net> _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
