Hi Benny,

> janis its not important you dont have the files, the point is, do you have

Yes, it is.  I know it didn't come from here then.  The FileGate can't be
responsible for files you get elsewhere :)

> virus in filegate.net yes or no :)

No, I told you that already :)

> #/bin/sh
> clamscan -r --log=/tmp/clamscan.log /path/to/filegate

On this version, you also need --recursive=yes.  -r doesn't work by itself.

We remove very questionable files all through the FileGate if they ever show
up...  We had some files an author wanted removed from Gamesnet a long time
ago, but it wasn't for Virus or Trojan, etc.  It was because the author didn't
give permission for their release. :)  You may see false positives on very old
files too... Did you find any in your files from the filegate, or no?

All FileGate FDN coordinators are asked to check their files before release.

Take care,
Janis
