is the free linux version of bitdefender maintained? I mention this
because in a quick test, the latest version failed to detect
Worm.SomeFool.P (ClamAV).
Checking on http://virusscan.jotti.org/ and their version of bitdefender
picks it up as Win32.Netsky.P at mm Most of the engines on this site pick
it up as a Netsky trojan.
my bitdefender is 7.1-3, the site above doesnt provide version numbers
but I suspect version 9 pro.
I tested by:
/opt/bdc/bdc /folder/full/of/junk/df*
clamscan --infected /folder/full/of/junk/df*
