Hi!
In the last week I noticed several times that freshclam needs up to 30
minutes using a full CPU to update safebrowsing database.
Most of the time the next update shows
Empty script safebrowsing-20426.cdiff, need to download entire database
What's wrong with safebrowsing?

Yup, that's what other users said above. Unfortunately, the page about

I rebooted and installed "ClamAV for Windows". I have a couple of questions:
1. Unless I missed it, the UI only allows scanning stuff in RAM, not files

Technically speaking, ClamAV is open-source. However, we do not
provide the code for ClamAV for Windows, therefore ClamAV for Windows
is close-source just like the other AV solutions you mentioned.
