#68 Improvements to "Filters"
I would like to propose the following enhancements to
the next release of ClamWin Anti-Virus:
ˇ The Filters tab of ClamWin Preferences should be
expanded to contain three sub-sections (1) Quick Scan,
(2) Exhaustive Scan and (3) Custom Scan.
ˇ The expansion to the Filters tab would obviously
influence what appears in the ClamWin.CONF file. So
this section may need to have expanded variable names
or sub-sections. For example, the Quick Scan option
could include:
o Excludepatterns =
.dbx|CLAMWIN_SEP|.tbb|CLAMWIN_SEP|.pst|CLAMWIN_SEP|.dat|CLAMWIN_SEP|*.log
o includepatterns =
.ade|CLAMWIN_SEP|.adp|CLAMWIN_SEP|.bas|CLAMWIN_SEP|.bat|CLAMWIN_SEP|.cab|CLAMWIN_SEP|.cgi|CLAMWIN_SEP|.chm|CLAMWIN_SEP|.cmd|CLAMWIN_SEP|.com|CLAMWIN_SEP|.cpl|CLAMWIN_SEP|.crt|CLAMWIN_SEP|.dll|CLAMWIN_SEP|.do|CLAMWIN_SEP|.eml|CLAMWIN_SEP|.exe|CLAMWIN_SEP|.hlp|CLAMWIN_SEP|.ht??|CLAMWIN_SEP|.inf|CLAMWIN_SEP|.ins|CLAMWIN_SEP|.isp|CLAMWIN_SEP|.jar|CLAMWIN_SEP|.jpg|CLAMWIN_SEP|.js|CLAMWIN_SEP|.jse|CLAMWIN_SEP|.lnk|CLAMWIN_SEP|.mdb|CLAMWIN_SEP|.mde|CLAMWIN_SEP|.msc|CLAMWIN_SEP|.msi|CLAMWIN_SEP|.msp|CLAMWIN_SEP|.mst|CLAMWIN_SEP|.ocx|CLAMWIN_SEP|.ole|CLAMWIN_SEP|.pcd|CLAMWIN_SEP|.pif|CLAMWIN_SEP|.pl|CLAMWIN_SEP|.pot|CLAMWIN_SEP|.ppt|CLAMWIN_SEP|.reg|CLAMWIN_SEP|.rtf|CLAMWIN_SEP|.scr|CLAMWIN_SEP|.sct|CLAMWIN_SEP|.sdw|CLAMWIN_SEP|.shb|CLAMWIN_SEP|.shs|CLAMWIN_SEP|.sxw|CLAMWIN_SEP|.sys|CLAMWIN_SEP|.tlb|CLAMWIN_SEP|.url|CLAMWIN_SEP|.vb|CLAMWIN_SEP|.vbe|CLAMWIN_SEP|.vbs|CLAMWIN_SEP|.vbx|CLAMWIN_SEP|.vxd|CLAMWIN_SEP|.ws|CLAMWIN_SEP|.wsc|CLAMWIN_SEP|.wsf|CLAMWIN_SEP|.wsh|CLAMWIN_SEP|.xl|CLAMWIN_SEP|.xml|CLAMWIN_SEP|*.zip
While the Exhaustive Scan option could contain the
following:
ˇ includepatterns = .
The Custom Scan section would include any modifications
that the end-user chose for the Exclusion and Inclusion.
