Your main.cvd file should start with: ClamAV-VDB:16 Mar 2016 23-17 +:57:4218790:60:06386 If it doesn’t then your original download is corrupt and will need to be re-downloaded. -Al- On Mon, May 16, 2016 at 02:33 AM, Zvi Kave wrote: > > Yes. Usually I got a lot of messages like this: > Cla

Al, But the problem is that in 90% of the cases, instead of getting the real main.cvd or daily.cvd, I get a file with the following text: <|DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> 403 Forbidden Forbidden You don't have permission to access /daily.cvd on this server. Apache/2.4.20

I don’t see how that can possibly happen if you use freshclam instead of curl. You only need to download main.cvd once ever few years, so once you have a clean copy you should be set. -Al- On Tue, May 17, 2016 at 02:29 AM, Zvi Kave wrote: > > Al, > > But the problem is that in 90% of the cas

[clamav-users] Signature update schedule, and requirements for adding Signatures

Hi, Hope it's the right list I'm posting to :) Why is the Signature Database only updated every 4 hours? Every 15 minutes would make more sense, since Spammers move very fast pushing out new version of Trojans and alike. I've reported several Signatures/Files (via. the website), but they ne

My 2 cents would be that rapid traditional signature updates are not a viable solution to this long term problem. I'm pretty sure the current generation of Locky, Dridex, Nemucod, etc. ransomware is generated using millions of tiny mutations so that almost every email attachment has a unique si

If you run clamscan with "--debug" it will tell you which files it is loading, even the files inside a cvd or cld file. It will also remark about which signatures is skips when loading. You should see these lines within your debug output: ... LibClamAV debug: daily.ign2 loaded ... LibClamAV debug
