Review by FileBEAST's Dunny One:

ClamAV is a virus scanner unlike no other, according to the website. ClamAV is an open source anti-virus toolkit for UNIX and windows, designed especially for e-mail scanning on mail gateways. I ran this on my own PC and it picked up my outlook email gateway like a charm. All mail that came in was automatically scanned for threats before it was uploaded to my Outlook client. The best part is its open-source nature, meaning ClamAV will be free for the life of its programming.
