ClamWin: OpenOffice Portable 2.4 False Positive? 241a13

Submitted by ultramookie on May 7, 2008 - 7:58pm

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

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 to our 2 standard testing sites to see how long before they were updated.
They were not detected.

Trouble switching clamwin between write-protected and open modes... 1f5m48

Submitted by Driftless on April 26, 2008 - 11:36am

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.

[false alarm] Clamwin portable 0.93 suspected as virus u575d

Submitted by zooz on April 22, 2008 - 8:45am

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.

can not open kee due to write protection 3v106j

Submitted by deemcgee on April 19, 2008 - 9:26pm

I installed Kee Portable and thought everything was ok however when I reinstalled my USb Thumb drive the next time I get this message " The disk cannot be written to because it is write protected. Please remove the write protection from the volume in drive F:" The thumb drive is not write protected with the tab that is on the left hand side of the drive so I quess it's the Kee software that is preventing it from being written to.

Also Kee does not automatically start when I insert the usb drive. I've tried my several times to no avail.

Is it better then avira antivir or bitdefender free edition?
Why was ClamWin chosen as portableapps.sitesunblocked.org antivirus?
