Hello !
After my previous post, i have uninstalled clamwin and after i installed it another time.
I had download the files EICAR on www.eicar.org to try the quarantine.
I have checked "move to quarantine folder", but after the scan clamwin doed just the report and doesn't move the files in quarantine folder.
In the old version it worked without problems.
To solve this problem do i must do something in the registry, or something else ?

there is a small issue with printing "moved to quatrantine" message in 0.93 however it does move files correctly. Please check if eicar.com is still in it's original location or it has been moved after the scan.

Mmmmmmhh !
I watched it, and the message appears for 1 second that the file is moved in quarantine.
But i have tested the file eicar.com now and clamwin doesn't move it in the quarantine really, but it stay in my folder Documents.

does your quarantine folder exist and path configured correctly in clamwin. I tested it number of times here and it worked.

Yes ! I watched it.
It is in: C:\WINDOWS\Profiles\All Users\.clamwin\quarantine
The setting in Clamwin is: C:\WINDOWS\Profiles\All Users\.clamwin\quarantine

sorry I did not understand. Do you mean the eicar.com file was moved to quarantine successfully?

No !
Clamwin doesn't move eicar.com in quarantine !
Maybe i understand !
I tryed to install Clamwin to laptop very old my girlfriend with win98 too.
I did this experiment there too.
Clamwin doesn't move eicar.com in quarantine folder.
Then i think the problem is that clamwin 0.93 doesn't move the infected files in the quarantine folder on win98.
The previous version worked perfectly.

Do you have Move to Quarantine checked on the ClamWin General Preferences Page? The install default is to Report Only--perhaps you need to check the Move to Quarantine box. Also, make sure the quarantine folder indicated below the check box is the same as what you have on the computer.

Regards,

Yes !
I changed from "report only" to "move to quarantine folder" in the options, but after the scan it appear for 1 second the warning that the file has moved in quarantine, but really it doesn't goes in quarantine.
I tried this on my pc with Win98 and on laptop my girlfriend with Win98.

P.S. the quarantine folder indicated below the check box is: C:\WINDOWS\Profiles\All Users\.clamwin\quarantine and it is the same as what i have on my pc.

Quarantine works fine on my Windows XP machine, too. I wonder if the ClamWin quarantine code actually accomodates Windows 98 now or if it is set up only for XP/Vista.

Regards,

I'll make some tests on an win98 it may be a regression for new quarantine / move / remove code

oh as always I'm happy for this:
the rename function I'm using with particular arguments is returning:
ERROR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
on win98x

it will be fixed in next release

Excellent work !
Then for the time being, i check the box "Report Only" and if necessary i check the box "Remove".
