Ubuntu Security :: Understanding ClamTK Scan Results

Apr 10, 2010

I've installed ClamTK on my Kubuntu 9.10 installation, since it's connected to a Windows7 machine.When I ran a scan, it found 9 'viruses', but they are all within my home directory > Opera/mail/store and are either status Phishing.Heuristics.Email.SpoofedDomain OR HTML.Phishing.Bank-593.I recently synced my Hotmail into Opera, so I checked the corresponding dates in my Hotmail account and deleted the emails which I thought were related, however, after clearing down my Opera history, etc., re-booting my PC and re-scanning, the results are the same.How do I clear down these files?

Ubuntu Installation :: Failure During Disk Scan?

Aug 21, 2011

Here are my specs to start off...

OS: Corrupted Windows XP, Home Edition
CPU: Pentium 4 2.8GHz
RAM: 1gb
Graphic Card: nVidia GeForce 8600 GS

So I corrupted my Windows OS by doing something stupid so I decided to install Unbuntu. I tried installing it over my windows OS, but as it's scanning the disk it fails and says "Apt configuration failure" and then "installation failure". I can't upload my partitions because I can't run my OS to find them.

I know the information is limited I've considered trying to install a different linux OS or even format my entire harddrive (I would really prefer NOT to do that since I'd have to install all the drivers off the internet).

Ubuntu Security :: Way To Scan For Rootkits ?

Jul 24, 2011

I've read that there are a lot of rootkits that exist for linux. MS Windows has tools where you can boot a "portable" scanner from a CD and scan your whole Windows installation for rootkits. This way you can even scan boot sectors because you are never actually starting your installed Windows.

Is there anything available like this for Ubuntu? Is there a scanner I can run off the LIVE CD for example to scan my ubuntu installation for rootkits?

Ubuntu :: Fsck Trying To Scan Recently Removed Hard Disk On Boot?

Nov 8, 2010

I have ran into a bit of a problem. my server(10.10) is hosting a website with no problems whatsoever. I decided to install an extra hard drive, and format. i did both, and turned off my server after some more configuration. After a while, I decided that the new hard drive was a little loud for my liking, so I removed it. I had not put any files on it. I rebooted and saw a message that said this:Quote:fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2/dev/sda1: clean, 101202/2351104 files, 1516082/9393920 blocksI think that when I turned it off, it was formatting. How do I stop this from halting the boot? I can get by it by pressing the b or a key.

Ubuntu Security :: Clamav Scan Results And Out Of Date?

May 29, 2011

I am a newbie in ubuntu. I did clamscan on my ubuntu /, and I got the result message as follow. it shows "486 errors" I am wondering if the result is OK or I need to do some action on it.

Known viruses: 968595
Engine version: 0.96.5
Scanned directories: 28067
Scanned files: 131696
Infected files: 0
Total errors: 486
Data scanned: 9020.40 MB
Data read: 17800.31 MB (ratio 0.51:1)
Time: 1349.479 sec (22 m 29 s)"

Also, my engine is 0.96.5. The latest version is 0.97. But "aptitude upgrade" can not upgrade the engine to 0.97. I understand 0.97 is still on testing. I am wondering if I can just stay with 0.96.5 and wait for the 0.97 passing all tests. if so, does it cause any security issue?

Ubuntu Security :: Innocent Website Tries To 'scan' Computer / Should I Get Protection?

May 6, 2010

So I forgot how to do something in Compiz and I quickly Googled it to find the answer. On the first or second link I clicked, a pop-up box opened from Firefox saying that I should scan my computer. Immediately, I pressed the X button, but a page started to load that tried to "scan" my computer. I closed out Firefox and re-opened it. I did the exact same search again on Google, but I clicked on the cached view of the site. It was harmless enough--a blog with some ads on the side of the page. I'm assuming that it was one of the ads that somehow must have taken over the page.

Anyway, I know that the discussion of anti-virus programs is not anything new, but I would like to know if this virus may have affected Ubuntu. What would you guys recommend in this case?Also, after running the update manager, I received a pop-up box asking if I would like to update Grub. Is this a normal part of the update, or could it be a virus? I'm a bit paranoid, being from the land of Windows.

OpenSUSE :: Using Clamav And Suse Live Disk To Scan Windows For Virus

Jul 29, 2010

when I attempt to scan anything with clamav from a terminal I get the following error:

ERROR: Can't create temporary directory /var/lib/clamav/clamav-da584cb3f4ee38529f0460ad6f7dc632
Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 999 or GID 100

Which I take to mean that there are no virus definitions installed. I use the "freshclam" command. Which results in the following error:

ERROR: Can't create temporary directory /var/lib/clamav/clamav-da584cb3f4ee38529f0460ad6f7dc632
Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 999 or GID 100
