----
0.92rc1
-------
ClamAV 0.91 is the first release to enable the anti-phishing technology
in default builds. This technology combines heuristics with special
signatures and provides effective protection against phishing threats.
Other important changes and add-ons in this version include:
- unpacker for NSIS (Nullsoft Scriptable Install System) self-extracting
archives
- unpacker for ASPack 2.12
- new implementation of the Aho-Corasick pattern matcher providing
better detection for wildcard enabled signatures
- support for nibble matching and floating offsets
- improved handling of .mdb files (fixes long startup times)
- extraction of PE files embedded into other executables
- better handling of PE & UPX
- removed dependency on libcurl (improves stability)
- libclamav.dll available under Windows
- IPv6 support in clamav-milter
- many other improvements and bugfixes
This release provides various bugfixes, optimisations and improvements to the
scanning engine. The new features include support for ARJ and SFX-ARJ archives,
basic SPF parser in clamav-milter (to reduce phishing false-positives),
faster scanning and others (see ChangeLog). To get a consistent behaviour of
the anti-phishing module on all platforms, libclamav now includes the regex
library from OpenBSD.

** Announcement **
Dear ClamAV users,
On August 17, Sourcefire, the creators of Snort, acquired the ClamAV project.
The full announcement is available here:
http://www.sourcefire.com/products/clamav/
We'd like to thank everyone in the ClamAV community for their dedication to
the project. The acquisition by Sourcefire is a testament to the hard work of
the entire ClamAV community in developing cutting edge technology that truly
showcases the promise of the open source model. With the additional resources
Sourcefire will provide we look forward to working with the community to
continue the advancement of ClamAV.
Sourcefire now owns ClamAV project and related trademarks, as well as the
source code copyrights held by the five principal members of the ClamAV team.
Sourcefire will also assume control of the ClamAV project including: the
ClamAV.org domain, web site and web site content; and the ClamAV Sourceforge
project page.
What's most important is that from the end-user perspective very little will
change beyond the additional resources Sourcefire will provide in our
continued efforts to advance the ClamAV technology and improve our ability to
interact with the open source community. The core team will continue to lead
the advancement of ClamAV and the CVD as employees of Sourcefire. Both the
ClamAV engine and the signature database will remain under GPL.
