Chris,
I totally agree, I actually have a copy of about 15,000 viruses that I
got from a friend of mine... most of which clam doesn't detect, the
only problem I have is I need an automated way to generate the sigs.
Sigtool (i think its called) isn't that clever at the moment, the second
it can grab patterns... i'll be contributing ALOT!, btw, patternFinder is
a java prog and our high end server distro doesn't at present support
running of this type of app :(
