I'd like to know one thing: when clamwin finishes it's scan and find viruses then what does it do? do it erase them or quarantine them or what?

Has anybody else been having problems with McAfee and their ClamWinP ??

For a couple of weeks now McAfee has been finding a virus in :
ClamWinPortable\Data\db\daily.inc\daily.ndb
and keeps quarantining it.

Now, before anyone jumps on me
1. I am sure that ClamWin is NOT infected with a virus and I am not reporting it as such, I am sure it is a false positive.
2. I am sure this is a problem affecting ClamWin, not just CWP.

It is detected as "New Script.c"

I think the file has something to do with ClamWin "unpacking" its updates.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Browsing in the Clamwin portable folder, I've noticed there is a ClamTray.exe file in the "bin" folder. In portable configuration, how is it possible to get Clamwin in the systemTray?
I prefer ask before tying something wrong and I want to be sure to that it won't leave anything on the hosting PC.
Thanks for reply.

Before installing the newest update, I deleted the entire ClamWin portable folder on by flash drive. Then, I executed the paf.exe file that I downloaded. When I was trying to copy the DB files, I could not find the \db folder in the \data folder (which was where I used to put the DB files). Can I put the DB's in the root of the \data folder? Or should I create a \db subfolder in the \data folder?

TIA,
Larry

Has anyone been able to get keepass portable 1.07 & XML Import plug-in to work together? (XML Import reference: http://keepass.info/plugins.html#xmlimport )

I've downloaded, extracted, and placed the XMLImport.dll in f:\KeePassPortable\App\keepass subdirectory.

In KeePass, when I select Tools/Plugins, it lists the dll, but its status is "Disabled, not loaded" -- which indicates that the dll is being found -- but it's not loading.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

In case anybody is using my tiny ClamWinPortableDBUpdate utility for ClamWin Portable, I wanted to mention that I have uploaded a new version of it (v.0.3). The biggest change is that it is no longer installed inside the ClamWin Portable folder but rather immediately outside it. I have also added a new .ini tweak, and the thing is now licensed under GPL 2.

Whenever I download the lastest release of ClamWin, it downloads the program, then when I look at the icon in Explorer, I get the default 'Application' icon sort of thing.
Then when I run it, this comes up.

I heard that SourceForge was having trouble today, so I'm thinking this has something to do with that.

See here for details on the downloads issue. Thread locked.

The most recent versions link on the clamwin page does not actually go anywhere. Navigating to the source and then going to all downloads worked for me to get it. This is the first time I have had any problems downloading from SF in a long time. Might want to double check that link... I have no suggestion as to a correct link though as my FFP auto selects a mirror to download from.

Thought I'd take a quick shufty at the helpfile with v1.07

It opens, but reports the file is not available in the right-hand pain.

re-downloaded and extracted a new copy, cannot read it.

tried reading it on its own, KeePass.chm
Same thing.
Other help files do open, no problemo there!

Any chance an uncorrupted version could be posted?
