My freshclam.log only shows entries like: Log size = 11242653, max = 1048576 LOGGING DISABLED (Maximal log file size exceeded). How can I increase the max log file size? Thanks, James. ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.

That still seems a bit "over-the-top". Sure, better safe than sorry, but I wouldn't just blindly delete any exe that I come into contact with (via email or otherwise). Especially on Linux, you can get archives zipped into an exe format that are unzipped via unzip -a. That is quite a common format i

Did you do a sudo freshclam? The repos aren't the latest, but that doesn't hinder the definitions. If you didn't do sudo freshclam, then you don't have the latest definitions at all. On Mon, 2008-01-21 at 07:44 +0800, umarzuki mochlis wrote: > i don't know if it's the latest or not. I just sudo ap
