Thanks for the reply, i am also looking for a way to scan the URLs present in webpages for phishing detection. I can not use firefox as i want to automate the process of scanning by first download the website using httracker and then run my custom program to scan the download webpages for URLs that lead to phishing pages.
You mentioned that emails can be scanned for phishing detection, that means if iam able to send the content of a webpage then clamav should scan the page for anchors with phishing links. Iam writing an application in java for which i need this integration, i am happy to integrate clamav code to perform phishing detection. pls let me know how to integrate (currenly i am scanning the download webresources like doc, pdf for viru using clamav by streaming the file to clamav), if phishing is not detected using SCAN/STREAM command then let me know on how to integrate with native code (using clam av libraries) thanks for your time On 2009-12-09 18:13, Török Edwin wrote: > On 2009-12-07 19:21, Sundara Kaku wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I have a special requirement where I want to scan downloaded pages from > > website for phishing detection, ex: i use httracker to download a website or > > wget to download a particular website and i want scan that webpage for > > phishing detection.
