Using a very simple scan on one file, here's how the dbs compare... foxhole_filename.cdb 1062 ms doppelstern-phishtank.ndb 1078 ms foxhole_all.cdb 1078 ms doppelstern.hdb 1093 ms doppelstern.ndb 1093 ms spamimg.hdb 1093 ms winnow.complex.patterns.ldb 1093 ms winnow_bad_cw.hdb 1093 ms winnow_extended_malware_links.ndb 1093 ms bofhland_phishing_URL.ndb 1094 ms crdfam.clamav.hdb 1094 ms rogue.hdb 1094 ms spam.ldb 1094 ms spamattach.hdb 1094 ms spearl.ndb 1094 ms winnow.attachments.hdb 1094 ms bofhland_malware_URL.ndb 1109 ms foxhole_generic.cdb 1109 ms lott.ndb 1109 ms winnow_extended_malware.hdb 1109 ms winnow_malware.hdb 1109 ms winnow_spam_complete.ndb 1125 ms bofhland_malware_attach.hdb 1141 ms jurlbla.ndb 1141 ms porcupine.ndb 1156 ms winnow_malware_links.ndb 1157 ms blurl.ndb 1187 ms jurlbl.ndb 1188 ms scam.ndb 1391 ms phishtank.ndb 1578 ms spear.ndb 1640 ms bofhland_cracked_URL.ndb 1734 ms winnow_phish_complete.ndb 1750 ms junk.ndb 1765 ms winnow_phish_complete_url.ndb 1766 ms phish.ndb 3422 ms scamnailer.ndb 6031 ms Cheers, Steve Web : sanesecurity.com Blog: sanesecurity.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
