Hi David - thanks for your reply. As I already wrote in reply to
[email protected],
I created a large logfile with all good and bad stuff logged, and then
searched out LibClamAV
messages. A search exclusively for .SWF files in the specified directory
gave nothing, but the
troublesome files were obviously hidden in various archives, in this
case one .cab file, one .iso
image file, and two self-installing .exe programs.
Thans again for your efforts.
Joern.-

After upgrading from 0.97.6 to 0.98.1 I get the following messages on the

upon scanning a large linux directory (some 60 GB) with clamscan.
The real problem is, that clamscan does not tell me which scanned files
it is actually complaining about, not in sysout and not in syserr. With
some
10,000 files in the directory it is impossible for me to find out which
files to correct or get rid of. I can prevent the "Invalid tag length" by
setting the --scan-archives to no, but that is hardly a solution if I want
the archives thoroughly scanned.
Can anyone tell me, what I shall do to retrieve the name of the
problematic files ?

It is probable that these are all tied to the Flash file scanning (which
was completely disabled in 0.97.6).
Try this: Run your scan with "--scan-swf=no" instead of
"--scan-archives=no". That is a more targeted shut-off.
Let me know how it goes. I'm tracking a possibly-related issue.
