ClamAV is an open source antivirus solution for UNIX/Linux operating systems. It features a command line interface for scanning files, updating the virus definitions, and a daemon for faster scanning needed on high performance systems.
Unlike most antivirus products, ClamAV requires no yearly subscription fee, and is completely free with source code to anyone who wishes to use it. Because ClamAV is released under the GPL v2 license, you must follow all license requirements if you modify the ClamAV source code, or use it in your own projects.
The SOSDG has taken the latest ClamAV from the CVS tree, compiled it against the current stable Cygwin DLLs, which provide a full UNIX/Linux compatibility layer for Windows operating systems.

Traditional antivirus protection fails you when you need it most - That’s when you need ThreatFire
Consumers spend over a billion dollars a year on security software to keep their PCs safe. Every month they spend countless hours configuring and updating their software. And yet every week millions of users are infected by new threats that their traditional antivirus does not stop.
Why? Traditional antivirus solutions cannot protect you until after they’ve discovered a new threat and produced a signature to counter it.
ThreatFire is different. It does not rely on signatures, but instead constantly analyzes your computer’s behavior to detect and block any malicious activity. ThreatFire protects immediately so you know your PC and your valuable data is always secure.
Download: ThreatFire 3.5.0

ClamXav is a free virus checker for Mac OS X. It uses the tried, tested and very popular ClamAV open source antivirus engine as a back end.
Back in the days before OS X, the number of viruses which attacked Macintosh users totalled somewhere between about 60 and 80. Today, the number of viruses actively attacking OS X users is…NONE! However, this doesn’t mean we should get complacent about checking incoming email attachments or web downloads. There’s no guarantee that we Mac users will continue to enjoy the status quo, but more importantly, the majority of the computing world use machines running MS Windows, for which an enormous quantity of viruses exist, so we must be vigilant in checking the files we pass on to our friends and colleagues etc.
Don’t forget, if you run VirtualPC you can still become infected and lose valuable data on your Mac even though technically you’re running Windows inside a sandbox. VPC will run any application you tell it to, virus or no virus, it doesn’t know the difference. You can protect yourself slightly by not using VPC’s “shared folders”, but that’s a useful feature which you shouldn’t have to be without.
ClamXav is fully Universal. This means it will run on 10.3 and 10.4 on PPC Macs and 10.4 on Intel Macs.
