That would make sense since it's the free anti-virus software provided. The other choices require a license. Thanks for the help.

If it's an old version of CLAMAV, you could be locked out of downloading.  The only authorized method of downloading the CVD files is through the use of freshclam<period>.  If you have a windows machine that can get the downloads, then you can try to move those files over to the NAS or setup the windows machine has a host locallly for downloading these files from it.  The docs are your friend.

It's also been mentioned here lots of times that older NAS's may not be able to run the latest clamav and the needed CVD files due to lack of ram in the NAS and/or the manufacturer has abandoned updates to the firmware in your NAS.

I'm sorry, I'm not Knowledgeable enough to know what that means. I just need to know where I can find the latest cvd file, so I can update the anti-virus software. Unfortunately, unlike the one installed in windows, it doesn't update automatic.

.cvd files are the libraries which comes with starting freshclam update service directly from clamav.net cdn.

I have a NAS that uses Clamav as it’s antivirus software. I wanted to make sure that it is updated. It says it needs a *.cvd files, but I cannot find that. I have downloaded the zip file for windows 64 at clamav.net, but nothing with that extension is located there. Please help. Thank you.
