Perhaps you missed this setting: # Allow heuristic match to take precedence. # When enabled, if a heuristic scan (such as phishingScan) detects # a possible virus/phish it will stop scan immediately. Recommended, saves CPU # scan-time. # When disabled, virus/phish detected by heuristic scans will be reported only at # the end of a scan. If an archive contains both a heuristically detected # virus/phish, and a real malware, the real malware will be reported # # Keep this disabled if you intend to handle "*.Heuristics.*" viruses # differently from "real" malware. # If a non-heuristically-detected virus (signature-based) is found first, # the scan is interrupted immediately, regardless of this config option. # # Default: no #HeuristicScanPrecedence yes _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
