ClamAV Installer Version

The current 0.92 installer is setting the version in the registry to
00.91.0200, which makes it very hard to tell that the latest version is
installed. Relying on file time stamps just is not a good thing in a Windows
environment, but I guess I'll have to do that this time. :(

Check your permissions on the folder. If they are OK, then you could just
delete the main and daily files and folders and then run freshclam to get a
new database.

Hello Everybody.

I have a question about clamd.log . I saw on one computer that every 30
minutes database is reloded.
I have also one computer with same configuration as first, but refresing
isn't so offen as first one.

On first computer clamd is Self checking every 30 minutes as it should be.
Second one self refresh after about 4-6 hours.
I have set all the parameters as this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
How many times per hour shall I run freshclam?

- If you are running ClamAV 0.7x please *upgrade NOW*. If you are
running ClamAV 0.8x or later, you can check for database update as
often as 4 times per hour provided that you have the following options in
freshclam.conf: *DNSDatabaseInfo current.cvd.clamav.net* *DatabaseMirror
db.XY.clamav.net* *DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net* Replace XY with
your country code <http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm>. If you
don't have that option, then you must stick with 1 check per hour.

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

First computer is Win2003 server and i run Mail server. Second computer is
Win XP and i'm not running nothing - just for testing.

This isn't a Windows specific question, so the correct place to ask is
clamav-users [at] lists

For the record, the information you want is held in freshclam.conf.
