Hi Jim - thanks for the suggestion

How can we have clamAV automatically scan the images after they are
uploaded (to catch any viruses as quickly as possible)?   If it is not
possible to set up clamAV like this, how can we set up a cron job to scan
the image folders and domain / server ?


Thanks for all the help!
