The largest place where ClamAV is deployed is on mail gateways.  However ClamAV 
is deployed everywhere.  Desktops, servers, mail gateways, I’ve even heard of 
people compiling for their Android platform, and of course Windows.

Hi, I am the new guy here so please forgive my ignorance :)  But "ClamAV is the 
open source standard for mail gateway scanning software"  It sure seems like a 
lot of people are getting hot about FPs on files that are NOT received as 
emails?  I keep seeing log files, samba distributions and full Windows C:\ 
scans where people complain about false positives.  Shouldn't that be product 
other than ClamAV doing these scans?  I mean if it's not arriving in your inbox 
as an attachment why are you scanning it with ClamAV?

Subject: [clamav-users] Latest samba source contains Win.Trojan.Qhost-106?
I just downloaded samba-4.4.0.tar.gz (the latest) from 
samba.org<http://samba.org>, and,
after downloading via HTTPS, ClamAV (0.99.1/21479) reports that the gz
file contains Win.Trojan.Qhost-106. In particular, the single file
wintest.py in the subdirectory wintest is reported.
