Hi all,

I plan to set up some ClamAV instances on Windows Servers to scan some 
office documents and other files.
So helping the other scanner which is already installed and to see if it 
is missing a virus.

I have just some stupid questions :-) :
Which signatures to use?
The default ones that come with the example config?
Any config i should take a look at?
As far as i have seen ClamAV isn't scanning the whole file just a part 
of it.
Do viruses sit at a special point of a file or do traces of them exist 
at special spots?

Greetings and thanks for helping. It is very apreciated.

Simon
