clamav 0.90.3-1ubuntu1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu gutsy
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 the Internet in the clamav-freshclam package. The
programs are based on libclamav2, which you can use in your own software.
.
This package contains the command line interface. It has:
* built-in support for various archive formats, including Zip, RAR, Tar,
Gzip, Bzip2, OLE2, Cabinet, CHM, BinHex, SIS and others
* built-in support for almost all mail file formats
* built-in support for ELF executables and Portable Executable files
compressed with UPX, FSG, Petite, NsPack, wwpack32, MEW, Upack and
obfuscated with SUE, Y0da Cryptor and others
* built-in support for popular document formats including MS Office and
MacOffice files, HTML, RTF and PDF
.
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.
