Brian, I tried your suggestion and could not get it to work. I too am stuck on Nigel's version because I cannot get any other port to run as a service.
I downloaded the zip file from TBB's site, unzipped and copied all files (except the config files) to 'c:\progra~1\clamav' and rebooted. Any suggestions? Did you just copy and paste all of the files (except config files) from the zip file or just certain ones?

Usually it was because I had not un-installed PowerTools and then re-installed it after installing clamav. The second time I had the problem was because I installed ClamAV in a folder other than c:\program files\clamav, which is where PowerTools will expect it. I'm currently running TBB's native version of ClamAV 0.94 for WinNT Kernel (http://hideout.ath.cx/clamav/). I simply downloaded the 0.94 zip file, extracted to my download folder and then placed the programs, but not the config files, in my clamav folder. Since my config files are already setup for paths and other options, and 0.94 doesn't have any new variables, I didn't need the included config files which use a path of c:\clamav. I did NOT "install" 0.94, but simply updated to the latest files. So I didn't have to re-install PowerTools and get the service to start again. If 0.93 installed as you wanted with PowerTools (I'm assuming the path is c:\progra~1\clamav), then try re-installing 0.93 and PowerTools, then simply download 0.94 and copy the program (but not the config files) to your clamav folder replacing the June dated programs with the September dated programs. After that restart your Windows computer and all should be OK. Otherwise look at the config files in your \clamav folder and verify the paths are correct in the config files. When I emailed Nigel he indicated that PowerTools must be installed in c:\progra~1\clamav folder or ClamAv service won't start. The only other option is to check you registry for ClamAV service. You do this by opening your computer services and then right clicking on ClamAV properties. Look at where the service is expecting to find the clamdservice program. If it is incorrect, make a system restore point, then edit the registry with regedit and correct the clamav imagepath in HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\services\clamantivirus so it identifies where your clamdservice.exe file is located on your harddrive. Let me know if this helps.
