Hi All, My apologies for a second announcement the same day, however the 0.88.2.2 release did not properly remove temporary files after unpacking. Therefore I have promptly released 0.88.2.3 to fix that. Regards, Alch ----Previous 0.88.2.2 announcement---- ClamWin Free Antivirus release 0.88.2.2 fixes a potential security issue with scanning of archived files: Zip, Rar and other archives were not properly unpacked if a user didn't have write permissions in the root folder (C:\). This bug only appeared if a user was not an administrator of Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/2003 systems. This release also sets "Detect Broken Executables" option to "No" due to high volume of false positives. Please download it here: http://www.clamwin.com/download/ Regards, Alch |
