Thanks for your reply. I am very interesting in the virus engien. I want to know the whole algorithm of scaning and trying to optimize the "int cli_scanpe(cli_ctx *ctx, icon_groupset *iconset)" function. I have read the readdb.c and pe.c file, I think the soff variable restore the length of the PE sections in the database. Am I right? And I want to know why not using the binary search instead of following code? Maybe it can speed up scanning? for(j = 0; j < md5_sect->soff_len && md5_sect->soff[j] <= exe_sections[i].rsz; j++) {
