I have a doubt regarding virus db files. why ClamAV team providing common database for paltforms like windows linux and mac os x. why not they provide virus database files based on platform specific. is there any specific reason behind this? i am very curious about know it.
since ClamAV is multi-platform, it would need multiple virus databases to be platform-dependent. It would also require to check every single virus signature which platform are they threat for. there's no sense in doing eny of those. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
