 # When enabled freshclam will submit statistics to the ClamAV Project about

 # This option enables support for Google Safe Browsing. When activated for

 # which will be automatically loaded by clamd and clamscan during the next
 # reload, provided that the heuristic phishing detection is turned on. This
00981f75
 # database includes information about websites that may be phishing sites or
 # possible sources of malware. When using this option, it's mandatory to run
