When I try to launch ClamWinPortable.exe via \\another-computer, it says I need to configure the settings (if I do so, it saves them in the local %APPDATA% under ".clamwin").

When I copy over to the local computer ClamWinPortable.exe, and create ClamWinPortable.ini with \\ paths, when launching that ClamWinPortable.exe I get an error telling me to re-install.

Am I supposed to use ClamWinPortable.exe or is it nothing but a splash screen shortcut to ClamWin.exe? If not and I must use it, can I pass ClamWin.exe's command line parameters to it?

Thanks!

Is there a way (through the program) to create a right click option and add shortcuts to the Start Menu?

Also, is the program trully portable or does it store registry keys like the original ClamWin (e.g. HKLM\SOFTWARE\ClamWin)?

Thanks!

Hi Everyone,

I just found a small bug in portable version of KeePass. Where would be the right place to report it?

Thank you,
SAL-e

ps. My apology if this question has been asked, but my search came empty.

CORRECTION:
OPS.. It was my error. KeePass works perfectly now!

Anyone seeing this? I just scanned my USB flash drive and ClamWin Portable says that my OO 2.4 Portable is infected (I subsequently scanned with Symantec and it says nothing is infected).

ClamWin Portable output:

Scan Started Wed May 07 16:34:48 2008

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

E:\PortableApps\OpenOfficePortable\App\openoffice\program\sw680mi.dll: Trojan.Hupigon-12219 FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------

Known viruses: 277225

Engine version: 0.93

Scanned directories: 837

Scanned files: 5930

Is there a way too wipe out viruses and not just scan them?
If not, then thats 125 mb wasted on my usb drive.

I just wanted to note that ClamAV seems to have changed it's policy on it's online scans through Jotti
http://virusscan.jotti.org/

and VirusTotal
http://www.virustotal.com/en/indexx.html

In the past the online versions were set to Advanced, find Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUA).

It currently "seems" to NOT be doing this.
I detected 3 False Positives the other day (2 in C:\i386 !!!)
I reported them to Clam today and decided to upload to our 2 standard testing sites to see how long before they were updated.
They were not detected.

Greetings, I am setting up Clamwin to incorporate a pre-scan in my work-flow. I have a write-protection lock on my USB (using a SD card with hardware write-protection). Heres the thought:

1) Plug in the locked device
2) Run clamwin to scan the programs in memory
3) Asses risk and walk away, or
4) Unplug, unlock, unencrypt, and go about my business.

So, I need Clamwin to work in both modes (write protected, and open) so that I can keep DB up to date, etc.

I have a weird thing with the file ClamWin_Portable_0.93.paf.exe.

Every time I execute it my real time antivirus (ca's etrust 7.1) yells at me that there is a virus at:

c:\documents and settings\[myusename]\local settings\temp\ns[changing number sequence]\system.dll

When I scan (with ca etrust antivirus) the clamwin_portable_0.93.paf.exe file it doesn't detect anything.

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.
