Kate, this is the wrong mailing list. The ClamAV users list comes
closest for third-party ClamAV (sic) signatures without a list of their
own.
Ok, sorry about that
Do I download the download scripts from
http://www.sanesecurity.com/clamav/usage.htm
or do I go to the downloads page? (they seem to be different)
The downloads page offers the latest sig files themselfs -- just in case
one needs a snapshot. That page is *not* suitable for periodically
updates.
You need to follow the *usage* instructions and get a script that
performs the actual download, usually run by cron. Details (how to call
the update script and how to configure it to your needs) can be found
alongside the respective scripts.
Once I have downloaded them I rename them to .sh then I run it and it
installs itself including the cron job?
No, the scripts will download the latest signatures -- you need to take
care about the cron job.
The reason these need to be re-named to .sh most likely is, so you can
conveniently read them in your browser as text/plain. Try it, click one
of the scripts' links you like...
Thank you for the information I will attempt to get it up an running,
have had a huge increase in spam last week or so and just trying to get
it under control.
Cheers for the help
Kate
