0.96.1
------

This is a bugfix release, please refer to the ChangeLog for the complete
list of changes.

The ClamAV team (http://www.clamav.net/team)

0.96
----

This release of ClamAV introduces new malware detection mechanisms and other
significant improvements to the scan engine. The key features include:

    - The Bytecode Interpreter: the interpreter built into LibClamAV allows
      the signature writers to create and distribute very complex detection
      routines and remotely enhance the scanner's functionality

    - Heuristic improvements: improve the PE heuristics detection engine by
      adding support of bogus icons and fake PE header information. In a
      nutshell, ClamAV can now detect malware that tries to disguise itself
      as a harmless application by using the most common Windows program icons.

    - Signature Improvements: logical signature improvements to allow more
      detailed matching and referencing groups of signatures. Additionally,
      improvements to wildcard matching on word boundaries and newlines.

    - Support for new archives: 7zip, InstallShield and CPIO. LibClamAV
      can now transparently unpack and inspect their contents.

    - Support for new executable file formats: 64-bit ELF files and OS X
      Universal Binaries with Mach-O files. Additionally, the PE module
      can now decompress and inspect executables packed with UPX 3.0.

    - Support for DazukoFS in clamd

    - Performance improvements: overall performance improvements and memory
      optimizations for a better overall resource utilization experience.

    - Native Windows Support: ClamAV will now build natively under Visual
      Studio. This will allow 3rd Party application developers on Windows
      to easily integrate LibClamAV into their applications.

The complete list of changes is available in the ChangeLog file. For upgrade
notes and tips please see: https://wiki.clamav.net/Main/UpgradeNotes096

0.95
----

ClamAV 0.95 introduces many bugfixes, improvements and additions. To make
the transition easier, we put various tips and upgrade notes on this page:
https://wiki.clamav.net/Main/UpgradeNotes095. For detailed list of changes
and bugfixes, please see the ChangeLog.

The following are the key features of this release:

    - Google Safe Browsing support: in addition to the heuristic and signature
      based phishing detection mechanisms already available in ClamAV, the
      scanner can now make use of the Google's blacklists of suspected
      phishing and malware sites. The ClamAV Project distributes a constantly
      updated Safe Browsing database, which can be automatically fetched by
      freshclam. For more information, please see freshclam.conf(5) and
      http://safebrowsing.clamav.net.

    - New clamav-milter: The program has been redesigned and rewritten from
      scratch. The most notable difference is that the internal mode has been
      dropped which means that now a working clamd companion is required.
      The milter now also has its own configuration file.

    - Clamd extensions: The protocol has been extended to lighten the load
      that clamd puts on the system, solve limitations of the old protocol,
      and reduce latency when signature updates are received. For more
      information about the new extensions please see the official
      documentation and the upgrade notes.

    - Improved API: The API used to program ClamAV's engine (libclamav) has
      been redesigned to use modern object-oriented techniques and solves
      various API/ABI compatibility issues between old and new releases.
      You can find more information in Section 6 of clamdoc.pdf and in
      the upgrade notes.

    - ClamdTOP: This is a new program that allows system administrators to
      monitor clamd. It provides information about the items in the clamd's
      queue, clamd's memory usage, and the version of the signature database,
      all in real-time and in nice curses-based interface.

    - Memory Pool Allocator: Libclamav now includes its own memory pool
      allocator based on memory mapping. This new solution replaces the
      traditional malloc/free system for the copy of the signatures that
      is kept in memory. As a result, clamd requires much less memory,
      particularly when signature updates are received and the database is
      loaded into memory.

    - Unified Option Parser: Prior to version 0.95 each program in ClamAV's
      suite of programs had its own set of runtime options. The new general
      parser brings consistency of use and validation to these options across
      the suite. Some command line switches of clamscan have been renamed
      (the old ones will still be accepted but will have no effect and will
      result in warnings), please see clamscan(1) and clamscan --help for
      the details.

0.94.2
------

This is a bugfix release, please refer to the ChangeLog for a complete
list of changes.

--
The ClamAV team (http://www.clamav.net/team)


0.94.1
------

ClamAV 0.94.1 fixes some issues that were found in previous releases and
includes one new feature, "Malware Statistics Gathering." This is an optional
feature that allows ClamAV users optionally to submit statistics to us about
what they detect in the field. We will then use these data to determine what
types of malware are the most detected in the field and in what geographic
area they are. It will also allow us to publish summary data on www.clamav.net
where our users will be able to monitor the latest threats. You can help us
by enabling SubmitDetectionStats in freshclam.conf.

For more details, please refer to the ChangeLog and

0.94
----

Sourcefire and the ClamAV team are pleased to announce the release of
ClamAV 0.94. The following are the key features and improvements of this
version:

  - Logical Signatures: The logical signature technology uses operators
    such as AND, OR and NOT to allow the combination of more than one
    signature into one entry in the signature database resulting in
    more detailed and flexible pattern matching.

  - Anti-phishing Technology: Users can now change the priority and reporting
    of ClamAV's heuristic anti-phishing scanner within the detection engine
    process. They can choose whether, when scanning a supicious file, ClamAV
    should stop scanning and report the phish, or continue to scan in case the
    file contains other malware (clamd: HeuristicScanPrecedence,
    clamscan: --heuristic-scan-precedence)

  - Disassembly Engine: The initial version of the disassembly engine improves
    ClamAV's detection abilities.

  - PUA Detection: Users can now decide which PUA signatures should be loaded
    (clamd: ExcludePUA, IncludePUA; clamscan: --exclude-pua, --include-pua)

  - Data Loss Prevention (DLP): This version includes a new module that, when
    enabled, scans data for the inclusion of US formated Social Security
    Numbers and credit card numbers (clamd: StructuredDataDetection,
    clamscan: --detect-structured; additional fine-tuning options are available)

  - IPv6 Support: Freshclam now supports IPv6

  - Improved Scanning of Scripts: The normalization of scripts now covers
    JavaScript

  - Improved QA and Unit Testing: The improved QA process now includes
    API testing and new library of test files in various formats that are
    tested on a wide variety of systems (try running 'make check' in the source
    directory)

For more details, please refer to http://www.clamav.net/press/0.94-WhatsNew.pdf
and to the ChangeLog.

You may need to run 'ldconfig' after installing this version.

** This version drops the special support for Cygwin. Our QA process showed
** serious problems with ClamAV builds under Cygwin due to some low-level
** incompatibilities in the POSIX compatibility layer, resulting in unreliable
** ClamAV behaviour.

0.90
----

The ClamAV team is proud to announce the long awaited ClamAV 0.90.
This version introduces lots of new interesting features and marks
a big step forward in the development of our antivirus engine.

The most important change is the introduction of scripted updates.
Instead of transferring the whole cvd file at each update, only the
differences between the latest cvds and the previous versions will be
transferred.

In case the local copy of the latest cvd is corrupted or the scripted
update fails for some reason, freshclam will fallback to the old method.
Similarly to cvd files, scripted updates are compressed and digitally signed
and are already being distributed. They will dramatically reduce traffic on
our mirrors and will allow us to release even more updates in the future.

Another noticeable change is the new configuration syntax: you can now turn
single options on and off, the old crude hack of "DisableDefaultScanOptions"
is no longer required.

Cosmetic changes apart, the 0.9x series introduces lots of new code, but some
parts are not compiled in by default because they are not ready for production
systems yet. You are encouraged to pass the --enable-experimental flag to
./configure when compiling ClamAV. The experimental code introduces many
improvements in terms of detection rate and performances. If you find a bug,
please take some time to report it on our bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net.
Your help in testing the new code is really appreciated. The experimental code
introduces many improvements in terms of detection rate and performances. 

RAR3, SIS and SFX archives support is finally available together with 
new unpackers and decryptors: pespin, sue, yc, wwpack32, nspack, mew, upack
and others. Additionally, ClamAV now includes better mechanisms for scanning
ELF, PDF and tar files. The email decoding has been improved to reduce both
the memory requirements and the time taken to process attachments.

As part of the Google Summer of Code program, we have introduced support for
a new phishing signatures format that has proved very effective in detecting
phishing emails. The ClamAV phishing module allows better and more generic
detection of phishing emails by searching for URLs in email messages, and 
comparing the real site with the URL displayed to the user in the message. 

On the performance side, support for the MULTISCAN command has been 
implemented in clamd, allowing to scan multiple files simultaneously.
Support for Sensory Networks' NodalCore acceleration technology
(http://www.clamav.net/nodalcore/) is now available in ClamAV and will be
compiled in if the ncore libraries are detected at compile time. NodalCore
acceleration allows highly improved scan speeds on systems equipped with
NodalCore cards.

Detailed list of changes:

-) libclamav:
  + New unpacker for RAR3, RAR2 and RAR1

0.83
----

Due to a high number of bad files produced by broken software, the MS05-002
exploit detector now only checks specific RIFF files. This version also fixes
a stability problem of clamav-milter/clamd and improves e-mail scanning.

--
The ClamAV team (http://www.clamav.net/team)

0.82
----

This release adds generic detection of MS05-002 ("Vulnerability in Cursor and
Icon Format Handling Could Allow Remote Code Execution") based exploits.
Fixes include correct attachment scanning in e-mails generated by some
Internet worms (broken in 0.81), removed false positive "Suspect.Zip"
warning on non-standard zip archives created by ICEOWS, better proxy support
in freshclam, and speed improvements.

--
The ClamAV team (http://www.clamav.net/team)


0.81
----

Scan engine improvements were made. The internal mail scanner now supports
multipart/partial messages, and support for decoding non-standard mail files
was greatly enhanced. clamav-milter by default uses libclamav and scans emails
itself without the use of clamd. libclamav can now extract RFC2397 encoded
data within HTML documents, block zip archives with modified information in
local header, and scan HQX files. PE file structure rebuilding from compressed
executables was improved.

Important note to clamdwatch users: please upgrade to the latest version
(contrib/clamdwatch) as soon as possible.

-) libclamav:
    + major improvements in the mail scanning engine:
	o support for multipart/partial messages
	o improved support for non-standard quoted-printable attachments
	o in some situations it will try to guess a correct mode (e.g.
	  a good type for an incorrect content-type, a best guess for an
	  unknown encoding type, etc.)
	o handling of RFC822 comments in the commands (e.g.: Co(foo)ntent-Type:
	  text/plain)
	o better recovery if memory softlimit is hit
	o new test code that decodes emails without parsing them first (must
	  be enabled manually before compilation)

    + support for extracting RFC2397 encoded data within HTML documents
    + blocking of zip archives with modified information in local header
    + improved PE structure rebuilding from compressed executables
    + improved support for zip archives
    + support for Mac's HQX file format
    + stability and (minor) security fixes
    + a lot of minor improvements, including support for new platforms

-) clamd:
    + new directive ExitOnOOM (stop the deamon when libclamav reports an out of
      memory condition)
    + new directives StreamMinPort and StreamMaxPort (port range specification
      for a stream mode)
    + support for passing of file descriptors

-) clamdscan:
    + added support for --move and --remove

-) clamav-milter:
    + by default uses libclamav to scan e-mails
    + new option --external (enables the use of clamd)
    + various optimisations

-) freshclam:
    + the DNS mode is now enabled by default (no need for DNSDatabaseInfo in
      freshclam.conf)
    + --no-dns uses a If-Modified-Since method instead of a range GET
    + added support for AllowSupplementaryGroups

-) sigtool:
    + new options --vba and --vba-hex (extract VBA/Word6 macros and optionally
      display the corresponding hex values; Word6 binary code will be
      disassembled)

-) The list of third party programs with support for ClamAV is growing
   rapidly. Here are the latest additions (see clamdoc.pdf for details):

    + AVScan - a libclamav based GUI a-v scanner for Unix
    + clamailfilter - a Python script that provides a-v scanning via procmailrc
    + ClamAVPlugin - A ClamAV plugin for SpamAssassin 3.x
    + ClamCour - an e-mail filter for Courier

0.80
----

Stable version. Please read the release notes for the candidate versions below.

--
The ClamAV team (http://www.clamav.net/team)


0.80rc4
-------

Improvements in this release include better JPEG exploit verification,
faster base64 decoding, support for GNU tar files, updated on-access scanner,
and others.

--
The ClamAV team (http://www.clamav.net/team)

0.80rc3
-------

This release candidate eliminates possible false positive alerts in UPX/FSG
compressed files and clarifies behaviour of default actions in clamd and
freshclam.

We encourage users to take advantage of our new mirror structure. In order to
download the database from the closest mirror you should configure freshclam
to use db.XY.clamav.net where XY is your country code (see
http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm for the full list). Please add
the following lines to freshclam.conf:

    DNSDatabaseInfo current.cvd.clamav.net
    DatabaseMirror db.XY.clamav.net
    DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net

DNSDatabaseInfo enables database and software version verification through
DNS TXT records, and the second database mirror acts as a fallback in case
a connection to the first mirror fails for some reason.


0.80rc2
-------

This update fixes a serious bug in e-mail scanner.


0.80rc
------

The development version of ClamAV is ready for general testing! New mechanisms
have already proved very nasty to Internet worms successfully protecting
against the new versions R, S, T, U, V and W of the infamous Mydoom worm
and detecting them as Worm.Mydoom.Gen before they were analysed and specific
signatures added by the ClamAV database maintainers. That means servers running
the new version of ClamAV have detected and blocked 100% of Mydoom attacks!

New features in this release include:

-) libclamav
    + Portable Executable analyser (CL_SCAN_PE) featuring:
	o UPX decompression (all versions)
	o Petite decompression (2.x)
	o FSG decompression (1.3, 1.31, 1.33)
	o detection of broken executables (CL_SCAN_BLOCKBROKEN)
    + new, memory efficient, pattern matching algorithm (multipattern variant
      of Boyer-Moore) - it's now primary matcher and Aho-Corasick is only used
      for regular expression extended signatures
    + new signature format with advanced target type and offset specification
    + support for MD5 based signatures
    + extended regular expression scanner
    + added support for MS cabinet files

    + new method of mail files detection
    + all e-mail attachments are now scanned (previously only the first ten
      attachments were scanned)
    + added support for scanning URLs in e-mails (CL_SCAN_MAILURL)
    + detection of Worm.Mydoom.M.log
    + updated API (still backward compatible but please consult clamdoc.pdf
      (Section 6) and adapt your software)

-) clamd
    + new directive ScanHTML (enables HTML normalisator and ScrEnc decoder)
    + new directive ScanPE (win32 executable analyser and decompressor)
    + new directive DetectBrokenExecutables (try to detect broken executables
      and mark them as Broken.Executable)
    + new directive MailFollowURLs (try to download and scan files from URLs
      in mails. BE CAREFUL! DO NOT ENABLE IT ON LOADED MAIL SERVERS)
    + new directive ArchiveBlockMax (archives that exceed limits will be
      marked as viruses)
    + clamav.conf was renamed clamd.conf

-) clamscan

    + new directive DNSDatabaseInfo that enables ultra lightweight version
      verification method through DNS (using TXT records). Based on idea by
      Christopher X. Candreva and enabled by default.
      (see http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/clamav/users/11102)
    + new option --no-dns (quick option to disable DNS method without editing
      freshclam.conf)

-) sigtool
    + removed ability of automatic signature generation (use MD5 sums to
      create your own signatures, see signatures.pdf for details)
    + new option --md5

    + OdeiaVir - an e-mail filter for qmail and Exim
    + ClamSMTP - a lightweight (written in C) and simple filter for Postfix
    + Protea AntiVirus Tools - a virus filter for Lotus Domino
    + PTSMail Utilities - an e-mail filter for Sendmail
    + mxGuard for IMail - a mail filter for Ipswitch IMail (W32)

Special thanks to aCaB for his work on UPX, FSG and Petite decompressors.

Thanks to good reaction times on new threats ClamAV was awarded as best
security tool for 2004 by Linux Journal: "...With this year's outbreak of
e-mail worms for non-Linux platforms, ClamAV has been getting quite a workout,
and Linux admins on mailing lists report that database update times are keeping
up with or beating the proprietary alternatives." Thanks!

ClamAV. Wear them and virus writers will stay away from you :-) A quarter out
of every dollar profited from the sale of these shirts will go to the ClamAV
project. Visit http://www.sourcewear.com and click on ClamAV logo!

0.75
----

This release fixes detection of e-mails generated by Worm.Mydoom.I.

Important notice for people using ClamAV 0.60:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our logs show that there is still a small percentage of ClamAV 0.60
installations updating their database. ClamAV 0.60 was released on
July 29th, 2003 and it was the last release to use the old database
format. Starting from version 0.65, released on November 12nd, ClamAV
uses a new database format, which is compressed and digitally signed.
We have been distributing the database in both formats till now, but
we plan to drop support for ClamAV 0.60 on September 1st.

We encourage _all_ users to upgrade to the latest release available.
People running an old version of ClamAV are missing many viruses and 
may experience stability problems.

On non-production systems you can try the latest development version.
The new engine not only speeds up the scanning process but also limits
memory usage by about 8 MB ! It's able to scan new formats, including
CAB, CHM, UPX, HTML (normalisation), PowerPoint macros and can detect
annoying e-mails with empty attachments generated by new Bagle variants.

Thanks to the help of many companies (clamdoc.pdf: Section 2.10,
http://www.clamav.net/mirrors.html) we have 49 very fast and reliable
virus database mirrors in 22 regions and the number is still growing.
As of March 2004 we attempt to redirect our users to the closest pool
of mirrors by looking at their ip source address when they try to resolve
database.clamav.net. Our DNS servers can answer with a CNAME to:
db.europe.clamav.net, db.america.clamav.net, db.asia.clamav.net or
db.other.clamav.net. Our advanced push-mirroring mechanism (maintained by
Luca Gibelli) allows database maintainers to update all the mirrors in less
than one minute !


There will be no major feature enhancements in the 0.7x series. Our work
will be concentrated on a new scanning engine and preliminary heuristics -
please help us and test CVS snapshots from time to time.


We are happy to announce new programs with support for ClamAV (all of them
have been reviewed by our team - more info in the documentation and
on our website: http://www.clamav.net/download/third-party-tools):

News:

ClamAV was the first anti-virus protecting against Worm.SCO.A (aka MyDoom.A) !
The signature was published by Diego d'Ambra in the daily update 105,
26-Jan-2004 20:23 GMT and we were at least two hours faster than "big" AV
vendors:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3764826&forum_id=34654
http://www.pcwelt.de/news/viren_bugs/37278/4.html


clamav-devel is finally able to decode OLE2 (Microsoft Office) files and
decompress VBA streams ! The code is developed by Trog, official ClamAV
developer. Also we're testing new clamd implementation that will solve
several important problems (especially that "Time out" related). Please
help us and test the latest CVS version.


The virus database now contains more than 20.000 signatures ! On January 8,
Denis De Messemacker (who joined our team 3 months ago) added signatures for
about 7700 new viruses. Also special thanks go to Tomasz Papszun for his
hard work on daily submissions and forcing us to keep ClamAV quality on
the highest possible level.


New mirroring mechanisms. Luca Gibelli (ClamAV) and mirror administrators
(22 sites, http://www.clamav.net/mirrors.html, please see clamdoc.pdf for
a complete mirror information) are converting mirrors to new "push mirroring"
method. It uses advanced techniques to ensure all the mirrors are up to date.

0.65
----
IMPORTANT NOTE: The project has been moved into SourceForge. The only official
		ClamAV's homepage is www.clamav.net (however clamav.elektrapro.
		com still works). We would like to thank ElektraPro.com for
		their support for the open-source community  - THANKS !


ClamAV 0.65 introduces a new database container file format (called CVD) with
support for digital signatures and compression. Please remove the old
databases from your database directory before the installation. And the most
important thing: clamd stability has been greatly improved (especially under
FreeBSD) ! Also we have a new mirror infrastructure - you will find all the
details in clamdoc.pdf. If you want to become an official ClamAV mirror
(with entry in database.clamav.net) please read the clamav-mirror-howto.pdf
document and contact our administrator - Luca Gibelli .

Noteworthy changes in this version:

-) clamd:
    + fixed a race condition in database reloading code (random crashes

0.60
----

Hello again...

This is a new, (very?) stable release of Clam AntiVirus. 0.60 was developed
and stabilized for over seven months and many people had contributed to the
final release. This version introduces many enhancements and a new program:
clamav-milter written by ClamAV developer Nigel Horne. This is a mail scanner
for Sendmail/milter written entirely in C, which uses clamd for virus scanning.
Clamav-milter and clamd duet is a powerful solution for systems where high
performance is required. Please check clamdoc for more detail.


    Many people get confused with ClamAV database status because of
    the OpenAntiVirus update information at:
	    http://openantivirus.org/latest.php
    (last update at 17 October, 2002). The ClamAV virus database contains
    the OAV database (with some signatures fixed or removed) but we
    develop it independently of the OAV project. Our database is updated
    frequently (on average 4-5 times a week). You can help (or join) us -
    will find some basic but useful instructions at
	    http://clamav.elektrapro.com/doc/signatures.pdf


News from ClamAV world:

-) New email address for virus submitting: virus@clamav.elektrapro.com
   You don't need to encrypt a virus sample, but if your system doesn't allow
   you to send infected files just put it into an encrypted zip archive
   (password: virus)

   Special thanks to Nicholas Chua, Diego D'Ambra, Hrvoje Habjanic, Nigel Kukard
   and Chris van Meerendonk for a big number of samples submitted.

-) New mailing list: virusdb@clamav.elektrapro.com
   After each update an email with subject "[clamav-virusdb] Update" and a list
   of viruses added is sent to it. You can set up a procmail rule for freshclam
   to react on such a mails (and update the database just after an update).

-) New official mirrors:
    + clamav.ozforces.com: database mirror updated manually (thanks to
      Andrew )
    + clamav.essentkabel.com: full (automatic) mirror of clamav.elektrapro.com
      (thanks to Chris van Meerendonk )
    + clamav.linux-sxs.org: database mirror - rsync from clamav.ozforces.com
      (thanks to Douglas J Hunley )

    Freshclam will automatically use them when the main server is not
    accessible.

-) Official port in FreeBSD available ! (maintained by Masahiro Teramoto
   )

-) Unofficial port for OpenBSD is available at:
	http://www.activeintra.net/openbsd/article.php?id=5
   (maintained by Flinn Mueller )

-) there are many new programs that use ClamAV, eg. mod_clamav (Apache
   virus scanning filter), clamdmail or Sagator. You will find more
   info in clamdoc.

Changes:

-) libclamav:
    + fixed buffer overflow in unrarlib (patch by Robbert Kouprie
      )

    + various mbox code updates (fixed memory leak; added support for decoding
      viruses sent in message bodies, detection of viruses that put their
      payloads after the end of message marker (thanks to Stephen White
       for the bug report and useful CGI tools); 

    + zziplib updated to 0.10.81 (some problems with older version were reported
      by Martin Schitter)
    + direct scanning of mbox/maildir files (new directive CL_MAIL)
    + file scanner optimization (patch by Hendrik Muhs
      )
    + bzip2 support
    + faster detection of malformed Zip archives (eg. 'Zip of Death'), they are
      reported as a viruses
    + fixed strcasecmp() compile problem in zziplib on Free/NetBSD and others


-) clamd:
    + fixed descriptor leak in directory scanner - it was causing random
      clamd crashes and locks, especially on highly loaded servers. Reported
      by Kristof Petr .

    + fixed crash with archive scanning on BSD (increased thread stack size)
      (Nigel Horne)
    + fixed CONTSCAN command (used by clamdscan) - it had archive support
      disabled (hardcoded)
    + fixed SelfCheck option (there was a logic bug, and the option was
      disabled) it now checks a databases time stamps and reloads them
      if needed.
    + fixed possible writing to undefined descriptors (bug found by
      Brian May )
    + new STREAM command (scanning data on socket) and directives:
      StreamSaveToDisk (save stream to disk to allow scanning within archives),
      StreamMaxLength. This option allows scanning data on socket (might be
      sent from another host), currently only clamav-milter uses this.

    + new ScanMail directive for scanning into mbox/Maildir files
    + new directive: ArchiveLimitMemoryUsage (limit memory usage with bzip2)
    + new directive: AllowSupplementaryGroups (feature requested by Exiscan
      users)
    + syslog support (LogSyslog) (patch by Hrvoje Habjanic
      )
    + fixed parser segfault with extra space between option and argument
      in config file (Magnus Ekdahl )


-) clamscan:
    + fixed --remove option (didn't work when the file was scanned with an
      internal unpacker) (patch by Damien Curtain )
    + --move option for moving infected files into a specified directory
      (by Damien Curtain )
    + --mbox enables a direct support for mbox files
      (ex. clamscan --mbox /var/spool/mail)
    + fixed --log (-l) option
    + fixed -i option (patch by Magnus Ekdahl )
    + enabled default archive limits (max-files = 500, max-size = 10M,
      max-recursion = 5)
    + use arj instead of non-free unarj (patch by Magnus Ekdahl)
    + use unzoo instead of non-free zoo (patch by Magnus Ekdahl)
    + removed thread support

freshclam:
    + mirror support (implemented by Damien Curtain )
    + --proxy-user: proxy authorization support (implemented by Gernot Tenchio
      )
    + new options --on-error-execute, --on-update-execute
      (ex. freshclam -d -c 6 --on-error-execute "sendsms 23332243 Can't
      update virus database"). Idea by Douglas J Hunley 

configure:
    + --disable-cr (don't link with C reentrant library (needed on some newer
      versions of OpenBSD))

-) Enhanced AIX (thanks to Mike Loewen ) and
   Tru64 support (thanks to Christophe Varoqui )

-) documentation:
    + included how-to in Portugese by Alexandre de Jesus Marcolino
    + clamdoc.pdf and system manual updates

Many thanks to Luca 'NERvOus' Gibelli from ElektraPro for his support,

----
Many major changes this time...

-) libclamav:

      libclamav contains a work around for it) (the problem was reported by
      Oliver Paukstadt )
    + engine improvements (better support for a detection of new viruses,
      limited memory usage (consumes ~ 5 Mb now))
    + mbox code updated and moved into the library: fixed core dump when an
      embedded message includes a mime header with the line Content-Type:
      without specifying the type of content, fixed (theoretical) memory leak,
      support for multipart/report messages, fixed bug causing some formats to
      fail to scan) (Nigel)
