ClamWin Free Antivirus :: View topic - Flashget : problem with the command line scan

Posted: Mon Nov 13, 2006 9:30 pm

Hello everybody !

Congratulation for this wonderful software !

Before posting that message, I've done several searches, not only on that forum, but also on the Flashget forum.

Everything is fine but I have a trouble with the following command line : "--mode=scanner --path=%1 --close ".

A new Clamwin windows opens well, but the scan processus stops because of the path criteria...

The error is that Clamwin "Can't access file D:\Program Files\ClamWin\bin\%1".

While having a solution, I replace "path=%1" by "path=G:\Flashget", so it works properly, but the whole folder is scanned and not only the dowloaded file, wich takes more time of course...

Am I the only one that have this problem (wich would be a bit strange) ?

Is there any solution ?

Regards

PS : my os is Windows XP SP2.

I've found a solution, but with Clamscan.exe, and not Clamwin.exe.

Are you shure the file is still on it's original location ?

- if the same file is in quarantine, just say "file excluded" and delete the file

Yeah it's not removed.

I removed the file from my download folder and from quarantine.
Then download the file with FlashGet which kicks off clamscan with
C:\Program Files\ClamWin\bin\clamscan.exe --database="C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\.clamwin\db" -l "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\.clamwin\log\ClamScanLog.txt" --bell --move="C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\.clamwin\quarantine"

This correctly identifies the file as a virus and moves it to quarantine.

When I then download it again it gets excluded but not deleted.
