Hmmmm....

We had in /usr/local/etc/clamav.conf

# Files in archives larger than this limit won't be scanned.
# Value of 0 disables the limit.
# WARNING: Due to the unrarlib implementation, whole files (one by one) in RAR
# archives are decompressed to the memory. That's why never disable
# this limit (but you may increase it of course!)
ArchiveMaxFileSize 10M


So I assume that this refers to the size of the archive, rather than the size of the uncompressed file. It looks like I can reduce this to 100K or whatever.

Thanks
Bill

Guys

We came across a problem using virus scanners on .zip files with the --unzip etc on clamav. One of our users decided to send a 127MB attachment zipped to 5MB. To cut a long story short, the mail server timed out/ran out of disk space.



Off the top of my head as I am not at work, you can adjust parameters in clamd.conf. I ran into a similar problem not to long ago.


John
