ClamWin.conf preservation

Many of the portable apps launchers hang around until the app launched exits in order to do cleanup work. I think it would be helpful if the PortableClamWin launcher did this in order to manage ClamWin.conf. The idea would be to copy Data\ClamWin.conf to App\clamwin\bin\ClamWin.conf at startup (if it exists), and then at exit copy it back the other way. That way users (I) don't have to manaully save that file aside when upgrading.

ClamWin: How good?

I've just tried Clamwin scanning main hard drive. I didn't expect to find anything and have AVG installed. I have spyware which i run on a manual basis. Haven't had a virus for 5 yrs but i only use webmail (as opposed to email client) to rule out the main risk of catching a virus (IMHO).

Well this is what it found.
C:\PROGRAM FILES\MYWEBSEARCH\BAR\1.BIN\MWSOEMON.EXE:

I don't know if this is spyware that wasn't detected or a virus.

Grateful for feedback.

KeePass.ini - KeeLastDir

Could the portable app be modified to make the KeeLastDir in the INI file relative just like the KeeLastDb? If you modify it manually, it is just rewritten with the absolute path the next time you use KeePass.
Thanks

KeeLastDir=F:\Portable\PortableApps\KeePassPortable\Data
KeeLastDb=..\..\Data\Database.kdb
