Security Apps Support

Anyone using clamwinportable knows from the menu that you can scan the host computer memory for viruses.
I am using a 3rd party app called "applauncher" that provides command line options.

My question-I want clamwin to automatically scan the host computer memory when I insert my usb. It currently opens on the host, but I manually have to select the option to scan memory.

Can someone please provide me with the command line option to run the scan automatically?

Thanks!

anybody seen that?

i just install it, it shows up in thunderbird as clam enable right down corner.
but if it works?! no idea

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.
