+Here are the new features and improvements in ClamAV 0.98.2:
9
+
10
+    - Support for common raw disk image formats using 512 byte sectors,
11
+      specifically GPT, APM, and MBR partitioning.
12
+
13
+    - Experimental support of OpenIOC files. ClamAV will now extract file
14
+      hashes from OpenIOC files residing in the signature database location,
15
+      and generate ClamAV hash signatures. ClamAV uses no other OpenIOC
16
+      features at this time. No OpenIOC files will be delivered through
17
+      freshclam. See openioc.org and iocbucket.com for additional information
18
+      about OpenIOC.
19
+
20
+    - All ClamAV sockets (clamd, freshclam, clamav-milter, clamdscan, clamdtop)
21
+      now support IPV6 addresses and configuration parameters.
22
+
23
+    - Use OpenSSL file hash functions for improved performance. OpenSSL 
24
+      is now prerequisite software for ClamAV 0.98.2.
25
+
26
+    - Improved detection of malware scripts within image files. Issue reported
27
+      by Maarten Broekman.
28
+
29
+    - Change to circumvent possible denial of service when processing icons within
30
+      specially crafted PE files. Icon limits are now in place with corresponding
31
+      clamd and clamscan configuration parameters. This issue was reported by 
32
+      Joxean Koret.
33
+
34
+    - Improvements to the fidelity of the ClamAV pattern matcher, an issue
35
+      reported by Christian Blichmann.
36
+
37
+    - Opt-in collection of statistics. Statistics collected are: sizes and MD5 
38
+      hashes of files, PE file section counts and section MD5 hashes, and names
39
+      and counts of detected viruses. Enable statistics collection with the
40
+      --enable-stats clamscan flag or StatsEnabled clamd configuration
41
+      parameter.
42
+
43
+    - Improvements to ClamAV build process, unit tests, and platform support with
44
+      assistance and suggestions by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior, Scott Kitterman,
45
+      and Dave Simonson.
46
+
47
+    - Patch by Arkadiusz Miskiewicz to improve error handling in freshclam.
48
+
49
+    - ClamAV 0.98.2 also includes miscellaneous bug fixes and documentation 
50
+      improvements.
