Clam AntiVirus is a GPL anti-virus toolkit for UNIX (and OS/2). The main purpose of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed with the Clam AntiVirus package, which you can use with your own software. Most importantly, the virus database is kept up to date. A multithread plugin for InetPowerServer is available, ask for details (not free software).

Download:
Latest stable build for OS/2 is version 0.96.4, it can be installed from Netlabs RPM repository; once RPM/YUM are installed, type from a command prompt:

yum install clamav
yum install clamav-update
yum install clamav-server

Configuration files are now placed into /@unixroot/etc directory.

A new ClamAV build has been pushed into Netlabs experimental repository for testing. To access the exp repository, run

yum install netlabs-exp

then use yum update to get newer binaries. Be aware that experimental repository can have other updated tools, and maybe you don't want to install all of them: be sure to update only ClamAV packages and required dependancies.


Older WarpIN installers are still available for download:

The status of current source integration can be followed here on ClamAV bugtracker.
