In order for us to get some accurate statistics about what you all are seeing out there, in the field, we need as many people as possible to "opt-in" to some statistics gathering features that we have built into the code base.
I'd be happy to opt into anything like this which might help, but I'm unhappy with the bytecode interpreter so I'm stuck with an old version of ClamAV. Viruses don't concern me - I don't use Windows machines - so I believe that ClamAV itself is a bigger danger to my systems than any malicious software(*). But the third party scam and phishing databases still do a useful job with the old version of ClamAV that I run. I'd be happy to get up to date and let you have some *interesting* statistics if you could just see your way to including a compile-time option which disables the bytecode interpreter. Mr. Skoll and I asked about this over two years ago: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/clamav/devel/46683 Incidentally my mail servers don't have browsers installed. You might like to think about that next time you post a link to a download page. (*) Experience has supported this view although it has to be said that things do seem to be improving, for which recognition is due. :) xc -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
