With "Dekomprimierungsbombe" (decompression bomb, uncompression bomb) Avast certainly does not refer those deadly vacuum bombs of Putin, but a kind of faulty recursive pointer somewhere in the internal directory tree inside a compressed file, that causes an infinite loop during decompression and so eats up all memory. ![]() I suspect that a bug in Thunderbird always corrupts the last accessed(?) e-mail folder file and fixes this during next start, because Thunderbird itself has no problem to access them. (ClamWin choked by a different mail folder.) The strange thing is that a subfolder named "p layingit.FONTDIV#4025862408" does not exist, and even copying the contents of the folder into a new one and deleting the old (to get rid of potentially invisible folders) did not change Avast's behaviour. Die Datei ist eine Dekomprimierungsbombe." Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 (20100228) stores all e-mails inside a single file (one per folder) in subfolders of "\Windows\Anwendungsdaten\Thunderbird\Profiles" (in English version likely "\Windows\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles")Īlso Avast 4.8 had displayed an anormaly scanning this folder:Į:\WINDOWS\Anwendungsdaten\Thunderbird\Profiles\fault\Mail\Local Folders\=CO=Windler (kein Spam)\p layingit.FONTDIV#4025862408 ![]() When I don't and exit taskmanager and then press ctrl-alt-del again, I instead get a popup requester that ClamWin has used up all resources. If I do so, the PC works again but I not even get a ClamWin log file, so I can only photograph the error by digicam. With ctrl-alt-del I see the taskmanager and can kill ClamWin. I can only move the mouse pointer, but neither icons nor systray nor screen redraw responds. Much worse is, when I run the ClamWin virus scan (which takes many hours per 16GB partition) and it finds my Mozilla Thunderbird e-mail folder (contains some 10000 e-mails of over a decade), it first complains about plenty of ancient phishing mails (they are scam, not malware! There is no harmful code in it, thus an antivirus should not care about them unless manually requested to do so.) Even worse, once it finds the biggest(?) of my e-mail-folders, it completely locks up and freezes my PC. Previously I had Avast 4.8 AntiVirus, which turned unbearably slow (booting 20 minutes, Avast updates >30 min), so I uninstalled it and switched to ClamWin 0.98.6 with Clam Sentinel 1.22. The start sequence is controlled through StartRight (finishes ZoneAlarm initialization before starting the antivirus). ![]() As firewall I am running ZoneAlarm AntiVirus 6.1.744.001 (with its outdated antivirus part disabled). I am using ClamWin with German Win98SE/KernelEx on a historical PC (DFI K6BV3+ Motherboard, AMD K6-3+ 768MB RAM, 160GB HDD) which is actually optimized for DOS Games (2 real ISA sound cards, 3Dfx Voodoo 1 graphics card etc.). ![]() MalwarePatrol.I already have submitted the following bug report to the ClamWin forum: 11, 2019, we have stopped updating the Safebrowsing signature database because Google announced changes to their 1) Remove Google Safe Browsing feature as it's deprecated/outdated,ĬlamAV has provided a signature database using Google's Safebrowsing API to provide advanced protection against emails with links toĪs of Nov.
