        You wont be able to do by configuring it through the web interface, but the unofficial signatures do have a package available.
        So do a pkg_add -r clamav-unofficial-sigs from the cmd line - this will download all relevant depandancies and install the config file (clamav-unofficial-sigs.conf.sample) in /usr/local/etc/

        Edit to your requirements and off you go.

          Thanks for the reply
          I added the package and adjusted the conf file.
          Will the new sigs appear in the HAVP window of databases?

            No it wont, it only looks for daily, main and the safebrowsing ones. It would need to be modified to see all the databases.

                  If you have AV log enabled have a look ClamAVs log file (/var/log/clamav/) it gives some insight into the number of signatures that are loaded but doesn't give detail as to which db is loaded and the number of signatures loaded from that db.

                  @vito:

                  Nope - havent used them specifically with HAVP but use them on the mail server side. They work wonders for mail.

                      Yes sorry it logs the signature that matches, in the log file.

                      The shell script that updates the 3rd party signatures also ensures the signatures are sane before placing them into the clamav db, so you dont have to worry about a corrupted signature download breaking things. Just make sure to add that shell script to cron so that the signatures are updated.

                        hmmm..

                        the only thing i see in the log is something like this, does not list the db's by name.
                        (lol, i happened to check the sig count from before the install and it was higher. that was how i though it worked) :)

                          I meant it logs the signature name that matches malware, for example Sanesecurity.Junk.28939.UNOFFICIAL.
