Hi Jules,

Could you add VBA32 as a virus scanner?

You can download the latest commandline version from
ftp://anti-virus.by/pub/

At the moment that would be vbacl-linux-3.12.6.1-20080215.tar.gz

I must admit I have not yet tried to decode the output from the
commandline. But I use the following bit of perl to read the log file:

while ($line = <FILE>) {
~   if ($line =~ / : (infected|is suspected of) /) {
~      chomp($line);
~      $line =~ s/^\/var\/virus\/2do\///;
~      @fields = split(/ : /,$line);
~      @fields[0] =~ s/:.*//;
~   }
}

The commandline scanner is free to use. That is free as in free wine.
(No point in telling Jules it's free beer ;-)

Regards,
Hugo.
