maldet uses ClamAV as the backend with custom signature files. I honestly couldn't tell you how many are unique from other 3rd party signatures. I'm pretty sure the clamav-unofficial-sigs script downloads the same signature files as maldet. The maldet program itself gives you turn-key ability for various scanning, logging, and cleaning options... _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
