I'm seeing some strange behavior in the latest svn, where clamd stops
detecting certain structured data test files after the daemon has been

this is specific to structured data or not. Anyone else seeing
anything similar. Is
Interesting...if I create a plain text email with the eicar text in
it, ClamAV detects it successfully.
Can anyone suggest another way to send myself a

You'll need to find a nastie that your local/server AV don't detect, but
ClamAV does. Or make an exception for a file extention... rename eicar.txt

Hello Alex, I don't have a definitive test either. I have recently installed
ClamAV on my gateway/router/firewall/smtp Linux box. I tried the canned test as

that a real email from the outside would be a definitive
Hello Noel, yep it worked. The eicar message was found but not before a user
with enough time to open the mail message and the attachement. And, it is
difficult to tell exactly which message is the culprit because all I see from
the CRON log email is:
Hi,

Another is SafeSquid, which now does not require Squid itself to be

http://www.howtoforge.com/gateway-level-virus-security-clamav-safesquid-proxySafeSquid
has windows and *nix support.
I believe Snort can even use ClamAV
