Hi Brendan,

Actually the latter.
I already looked a bit at the manpage and the help text of clamscan.
And maybe some other recommendations you might find that Windows users might 
find useful.

Greetings,
Simon

Welcome Simon!

Just to clarify are you asking for help on how to adjust the default size for 
files scanned or are you asking for advice on size limit recommendations and 
the thoughts behind those recommendations?


Brendan

Subject: [clamav-users] ClamAV on Windows


Hi all,



I am new to ClamAV and have some questions.

Maybe someone could answer some of them.



We are having a Windows file server which we want to check for viruses 
regularly.

Though we have another anti virus package running.

So we also want to get a second opinion.



We have various file types there.

Also bigger zip files.

I have read that ClamAV stops scanning after a defined file size.

Are viruses generally at the start of a file or some traces of it?

Whats the recommended file size and file amount to set?

Any other options i might set?



Greetings and thanks,

Simon
