Thanks for your questions and suggestions. I had a look via the --debug method, and found the following in the clamAV call:-
LibClamAV debug: cli_updatelimits: filesize exceeded (allowed: 26214400, needed: 104096320) To check this, I ran clamAV with an eicar string test and got the expected hit: D:\clamav_testing\EICAR_string.py: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND ----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- Known viruses: 4667494 Engine version: 0.99.2 Scanned directories: 0 Scanned files: 1 Infected files: 1 Data scanned: 0.00 MB Data read: 0.00 MB (ratio 0.00:1) Time: 7.622 sec (0 m 7 s) Is there somewhere in the clamAV config I can set the cli_updatelimits: filesize to be larger? In the install dir I only see clamd.conf and freshclam.conf: TCPSocket 3310 MaxThreads 2 LogFile C:\working\clam_av_logs\clamd.txt DatabaseDirectory C:\Program Files\clamav-amd64-0.99.2\db DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net DNSDatabaseInfo current.cvd.clamav.net Thanks, J Jay Gattuso *********************** _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
