Hi there, was wondering why Clamwin was removed?
I downloaded and the plugin from your site and configured it, however after burning cd and running it, it seems to scan nothing,
it seems to load what it needs into locals\temp and starts up fine, when you set it to scan a file/folder or memory it sits there scanning nothing forever. I changed the file locations for clamwin, freshclamwin etc in the settings to where they are on the cd and even the temp folder location but neither worked.
Also I enabled the avg antivirus in your plugins and upon loading it asks if you wish to load temp files to C: as a choice but when selected it cannot find files, sorry for the poor specifics but I cant remember the error of the top of my head.
Has anyone had any success with these tools, am I missing a step?

Clamwin was dropped as it wasn't considered effective enough at removing virus's.
I'm sure the others will be able to help with your other queries.

How much space is available on the ram drive ( B: ) ?
Any futher help will require the exact error message, you can't just guess at this stuff and we aren't psychic.

Oh why not? I was expecting my fortune read also.
Sorry I was lazy, it works now I re-built the image and it seems ok, I couldn't remeber that error as I had scrapped that image, I just assumed a newly built image would fail also. Have been experiencing inconsistent builds for example sometimes starburn fails after erasing the cd and fails to write the image or somtimes I get multiple copies of the programs in my ubcd start menu which I have seen someone else in the forum has had the same problem a long while ago. I actually tried disabling some background processes from running including my screen saver just in case they were interfering with the build process if thats possible.
Anyway sorry for wasting your time I appreciate the help, shame about clamwin I quite like it apart from being a bit slow to scan. Oh well back in the ocean for that tool.
Cheers guys

The ClamWin plugin is still available for download on the download page.. granted it isn't the most updated one though..
Multiple menu entries are caused by two things... not building the ISO in the builder ... this stops the process where certain post processing happens... and when a plugin is added that the XML isn't correct for the build and needs corrections.

Yes I added it to the project but as I said it functions but sits there scanning zip forever. I set the file locations in the preferences tab to the ones in the ramdrive but it still scans nothing. When you press stop it says it knows something like 15000 viruses but has scanned no files.
As for the multiple menu problem you can build the project one time and its like this and you can just hit build again straight after and it builds it fine second time, without even touching the plugin button. Strange!
