Hi All,
I certainly hope the following doesn't start a flame war! I would like
to use Linux to scan Windows drives for viruses. Since Linux is
generally slime free are any of the Linux anti-virus solutions robust
enough to handle Windows? Perhaps I should consider using VM, Windows
and a Windows based anti-virus? Ideas?
Did you give clamav a try? It is in the repos.

But can it run stand-alone, to analyze all files in a tree, or plug
into Samba, so that all new or modified files get scanned?
Samba shares are just mounted file systems right? So I am sure that
clamav can simply be used to scan those files in the shares...
*If* it can run stand-alone.
I don't
think any special hook to plug in to samba.
I figured as much, but it makes it more expensive to scan for malware.
