i downloaded the suite which im inpressed with however when i activated the anti virus programme it stated i needed to upgrade to the new version the problem is ive tryed to setup the new version but i keep getting an error warning that says the file is corrupted. ive downloaded it three times so far ive opted to run/ and save but the outcome is the same no matter what i do.i dont know if a virus could be preventing me from setting it up or if windows onecare interupting the download is causing the problem . any advice etc would be appreciated. also is there any chance of placing the updated clamwin in the portableapp suite as that downloaded without any problem yesterday.
Go here:
https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/clamwin_portable
Click on the download button [Main\Left click Not right click]
Let is take you to sourceforge for the actual download.
If java script is turned off click [Main\Left click Not right click]
on the direct link, save file.
it should be about 6 MB,
What do you get?
Can you check the md5 check sum?
After download is complete try installing again.
What happens?

By the way, Welcome to PortableApps.com
1. Current version of CWP is .092, .093 has not been released yet (CW .093 was just released)
2. 5.96 MB seems correct.
3. MD5 hash/check sum is a number generated by a program to ensure that a file is the same as the file the poster intended.
The hash/sum for
ClamWin_Portable_0.92.paf.exe
is
3af7c7fb061e8ebb49b56c14671b234c
You can download our MD5 checker here:
https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/winmd5sum_portable
If, after comparing the number to the one above, they do not match you are getting a bad/corrupted download.
Let us know how it looks,
[Oh, and could you edit you original post to say .092 so as to not confuse anybody, thanks]
