Well... I've been running clamav for quite some time now and, sincerely, I believe is a needed addition to ASSP since it helps cutting off a number of junk which may otherwise get through :) > I'm see almost no chatter on ClamAV and ASSP here.

As I wrote, I'm using it; the setup is pretty straightforward, just a matter of RTFM to understand how to configure the clamd and freshclam "conf" file and to get a grip about setting both up to run as services at that point you'll just need to set up ASSP to connect to your clamD on port 3310 and let it go :) A good start may be installing the tBB package found here http://hideout.ath.cx/clamav/ and then once properly running, upgrade the clamav files to the latest release found here http://guysalias.fateback.com/misc/clamav/ done that, and after ensuring everything is working I'd suggest you to install the tBB "clamsup" script (along with rsycn) so that you'll be able to add the SaneSecurity signatures to your clamav http://www.sanesecurity.co.uk/databases.htm those sigs are rather effective and will help you stopping a whole lot of junk, not just malware but also image/pdf spam and more; also notice that, if you want, you may install the clamav/freshclam on a different machine from the one on which you're running ASSP; while this may and will impose some overhead due to the fact that the scan traffic will then flow over a network connection, it may help reducing the load on the box running ASSP ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ Assp-test mailing list Assp-test@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/assp-test
