Hi,
I got a virus on my pendrive....
clam win detects it but cant remove it,i guess the problem is that the virus is in the memory. (also i have checked the unload virus frm memory option)....

Can you delete it manually?
ClamWin will only delete virii it finds if you have checked "REMOVE" in the settings.

It is very hard to "stop" a virus in it's tracks if it is already active, in this case clamwin can only take it out of memory and delete what it finds.

new release will have more aggressive way to remove/move files (like scheduling for next reboot)
