Re: [LUG] Ubuntu + Thunderbird + ClamAV

 

Hi Anthony,

Is Sophos for linux what one would expect from an anti virus product for an ex-microsoft user?

I'll be purging Clam and giving this thing a whirl!


Cheers

I think this originally came from my hacked website, and in backing that up to my computer... er yes- not a bright move perhaps!
I have had success in loading in Sophos for linux. It seems to work well, and does not load the system unduly.
Clam actually has forced shutdown several times, whether through cpu-load>overheating or other I'm unsure (logs might show why- advise?)
I wanted to load something other than Clam, for some reason it wasn't inspiring confidence.
Hope this helps.
Regards

Anthony
