NEW!!! Alceu R. de Freitas Jr. and Anders Larson have been working hard on the latest BETA version for testing purposes. Grab it, install it in your test environments and submit changes and bugs to us here. Please read the NOTES and CHANGELOG to see last modifications and advices. The beta version includes translations for more languages, separated language files and configuration file and support to more viruscanners and redirectors programs (such SquidGuard).


Translations

All translations are included in each Viralator version released, but you may get new translations files or updated ones from here.
Each translation file has a version number which should be equal or higher than the lastest version of Viralator avaiable for download.
You can download here a Perl script to help when creating or updating translations files.
Please, remember sending us an email asking about creating a new translation: this will avoid having more than one person working in a translation.

Viralator legacy


I have uploaded a 0.9pre2 release Viralator-0.9pre2.Very few additions have been made except security is now much better and a few bugs have been carved out.
A note about security. The script prior to 0.9 pre2 did not contain taint checking and had some security flaws. People using versions prior to 0.9 pre 2 should upgrade immediately.
I would suggest that you restrict access to the script to your internal network or to trusted hosts
There will be a couple of pre 0.9 releases of viralator. The first one is entirely a contribution from Diaolin (diaolin AT diaolin.com) and Marco Ciampa (ciampix AT libero.it) They have added international language support, fixed a nasty bug with ? in the URL, added an archive function for downloads and cleaned up the code.

I am working on pre 3 and will add more languages and the patches people have sent me. To make my life easier please send patches against the 0.9pre2 release.
Alceu made an an update to version 0.9.5 and its availible on the site...
