I have just downloaded clamwin to a flasfdrive. I would like to create another directory on the flashdrive and move clamwin into this directory prior to installing the programme.

I note that winwget (used for download) has kept all the download information in its window. Will moving the programme on the flashdrive cause a problem?

Thanks

I assume that an antivirus programme on a flashdrive is only necessary if the pc's that one uses do not have AV programmes installed that check the hard drives and memories. Assuming of course that they will scan the flashdrive as an option (right click,etc). Is this a correct assumption.

Just a note:
The main.cvd for ClamAV/Win/portable is updating from

49 to 50

If you have high speed access the most efficient way to do the update is to directly download the file from here:

http://www.clamav.org/download/cvd
after deleting your current main.cvd

If you allow it to update itself you will get a
43 MB main.cld instead of a nice compact 19 MB main.cvd

don't forget to delete your current daily.cld also if you use this method, the new daily.cvd is only 371kb

Remember:

delete
...\ClamWinPortable\Data\db\main.*
...\ClamWinPortable\Data\db\daily.*

and

Just a small bug, but if you set your window backgrounds to black you cant see the text in the settings section. The other windows override with the default gray. Anyone have a fix for this (aside from changing the theme Thanks in advance.

I noticed the same problem as derousse described in the following topic
https://portableapps.com/node/15810#comment-100512

In the same topic Simeon gave this advise:

it should get moved from the /Data to the App/keepass folder wneh you start the App and back after you close it.

Maybe something got wrong and it now uses the KeePass.ini in the App/keepass folder. If you move it manually to the /Data/settings folder, it should be working the way its supposed to.

This works but there are two issues we should think of.

I have used Clamwin a few times now. Thought its has said it has never found a virus, many times it will say acess denied, does that mean i can still have viruses?

hello,

I have portable clamwin 0.94.1rev2 installed as of today. I was curious how I set up right click integration with Windows XP? I don't see the option at all in the preferences and I've searched through the manual.

Thanks.

i just get the report like u see...

could u help me to find why???

HI
I have just saved the latest version of Keypass portable.
And would like some help, on how to transfer the current password entries into the new version.
I tried to copy & past (Copy of Database,bakup)onto another Memory stick to have as a backup copy but it didn’t' work.

Help will be appreciated

Hello all. I was just wondering if it was possible to download the virus database for clamwin to the flash drive, that way there is not taking up vital HD space to run it?
