We could cut down SweepVirus.pm to about half the size with about a third of the checks. Which = faster scanning, less overhead, less dated code to maintain.

SCEP is free (at least for us) and I'd love to see SCEP in the list.
I've got a generic wrapper working, but the code appears to ignore the
generic wrapper, so all I get are syslog messages about viruses that are
then let through.
