what's the best place to start?
Definitions are stored in mysql and only the delta is downloaded
from google. After the download is successfully and the mysql data
is up-to-date you can generate the file for clamav. Basically you
have two scripts:clamsbsync.py to update the mysql db from
googleclamsbwrite.py to create the .gdb file ...
Thanks, that's a very clear explanation. So instead of using freshclam
you just need to install mysql, Python, and some scripts. Hmmm...
don't put too much faith in safebrowsing database. I rarely have any
hit even if there are almost 3 milion of signatures. In contrast i
have way more many hits with Sanesecurity.
Perhaps this DB would be more important for people who use on-access
scanning and are less fastidious in their browsing habits.
