In reply to Gibran.

The cronjob is created during the installation. Please check the /etc/cron.daily/maldet file.

You may edit the /etc/crontab file and change the time, for example:

10 1 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily

‘quar_clean’ will clean string-based malware injections from a script, it should not remove the script.

Please note that ‘quar_clean’ require that ‘quar_hits’ is enabled.

Thanks for helping me out. Here quar_clean=1 will clean the detected malware injections. That means: if malware found in a script (php,html etc) will this remove the script completely from the server??
