Security Apps Support

After I updated my ClamWin and started scanning my portable drive, McAfee found 3 trojans in my Temp folder.

When my clamwin quarantined a virus, the virus is recognised as malicious by my pc antivirus. Why is this happening. I used Symantec antivirus and AVG free both. Why is the av prog still recognize the virus eventhough it's quarantined escpecially Virus/Worm Mytob. Somebody please solve this problem.

Just a note:

The main.cvd for ClamAV/Win/portable is updating from

47 to 48

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

If you allow it to update itself you will get a

37 MB main.cld instead of a nice compact 16 MB main.cvd

FWI,

hello
I have bitdefender in my computer and I didn't have any problem, I downloaded portableapps with Clamwin I made an scanner which indicate that my computer is completely infected with Trojan.swizzor-82. furthermore my usb device is also infected, particularly firefox portable and audacity.
bitdefender from my computer and online don't detect any virus and neither secuser.com.
I couldn't find any information about the virus and I really don't know what to do, because clamwin does not propose cleaning and the others antivirus I have tried do not detect anything.

Oh dear,

Some background info: all the apps on my pen drive is the latest version available from this site and I have the latest signature files for ClamWin Portable.

Just ran a scan on my PortableApps USB drive and below is the scan summary. The virus scanner on my PC did not detect anything when I ran a scan on the same drive afterwards.

G:\PortableApps\Toucan\Toucan.exe: Trojan.Zlob-7844 FOUND

I used Keepass portable without launcher. To say what I exactly did. I launched keepass.exe instead of keepass-portable.exe

Someone said, as I used Notepad++ without launcher, that it leaves some data behind. Do I have a problem?

Thanks.

How good is Clamwin vs virus,malware,spyware,trojans and any other things.

Not sure if this is being worked on or not, but I thought I'd point it out

Changes from 1.11 to 1.12:

New Features:

* Groups in the group list now behave like folders in Windows Explorer when moving groups/folders (i.e. sub-groups are also moved).
* Added advanced option to drop to the background when copying data to the clipboard.
* Added auto-type configuration dialog (button 'Auto-Type' in the options dialog, tab page 'Advanced'); this dialog now contains all options related to auto-type.

Hey All
I just tried to download clamwin portable from the sourceforge page, using the ireland Dublin HEAnet mirror, the file downloaded OK but when I click the installer icon I got an error something to do with nsis?

The German DFN mirror version has worked OK.

I was installing clamwin in my new pen drive ,when the message pops up saying unable to open file for writing two files with .pyd ext and one pdf manual file.
what to do.
