OpenAV (was RE: [Mimedefang] MIMEDefang survey...)

[Hamilton, Kent]

OpenAV is a Java app so the "daemon" is a Java .jar file. It doesn't really
install itself anywhere specific you can stick it in any directory and then
"java -jar /PATH/TO/ScannerDaemon.jar /PATH/TO/credo/VirusSignatures.credo"
gets it started. 

I stick mine in /usr/local/openav but that's just me. 

I just tried installing clamd and then rebuilding/reinstalling mimedefang to
use it and so far I haven't had a virus marked by it at all in spite of
getting at least three myself.  Guess I have something wrong.
