clamav 0.88.2-1ubuntu1.2 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu dapper
Clam AntiVirus is an anti-virus toolkit for Unix. The main purpose of this
software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The
package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon in the
clamav-daemon package, a commandline scanner in the clamav package, and a tool
for automatic updating via Internet through the clamav-freshclam package. The
programs are based on libclamav1, which you can use in your own software.
.
This package contains the command line interface. It has:
* built-in support for RAR (2.0), Zip, Gzip, Bzip2, Tar, MS OLE2, MS Cabinet
files, MS CHM (Compressed HTML), MS SZDD
* built-in support for mbox, Maildir and raw mail files
* built-in support for Portable Executable files compressed with UPX, FSG,
and Petite
.
For scanning to work you'll need a virus database. You have 2 alternatives:
* clamav-freshclam: updates the database from Internet. This is
recommended if you have Internet access.
* clamav-data: for users without Internet access. Isn't updated at all
once it's installed. You can easily create your own updated package from
an Internet connected computer however, using clamav-getfiles.
