Hello Lipper:

I believe that Alch/Sherpya are going to prepare a ClamWin V.99.4 release. They think that most of the V.99.3 bugs have been taken care of with this version. Look for a beta test soon.

There doesn't appear to me to be any new antimalware detections, but some of the AVs are preparing releases like that now--to take care of bugs and to increase user functionality. Looks like 2018 is going to be quite a buggy year--lots of opportunity for malware!

Regards,

There is a ClamWin version .99.4 beta that has been prepared, but it looks like there are not many beta testers. If you are a ClamWin beta tester, it's here! If you would like to be a beta tester, let Alch know via the Contact link from the main ClamWin web page.

Regards,

Just wondered if anyone else is having this problem with the latest ClamWin update? And is it a false positive which I should try and overcome and install latest ClamWin anyway.
Sorry if this is not in right part of forum - non-techie married to open source consultant ("your fault for having a windows PC/I know nothing about Windows" - he bought it for me so I could have iTunes) so any advice appreciated. Many thanks.

Did you download the final released ClamWin version .99.4 from the ClamWin web site? I would not trust any other site.

If you can download it, just download--do not run. Then scan it with an updated real-time AV and run/install if the AV says it is okay.

Let us know if problems continue.

Regards,
