Clam AntiVirus 0.94.1rc1 (Development branch)

Clam AntiVirus is an anti-virus toolkit designed especially for email scanning on mail gateways. It provides a number of utilities, including a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a commandline scanner, and a tool for automatic database updates. The core of the package is an anti-virus engine available as a shared library. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This is an interim release that fixes some issues found in previous releases. It also includes one new feature,“Malware Statistics Gathering.” Malware Statistics Gathering is an optional feature that has been added to freshclam enabling ClamAV to send summary statistics to Sourcefire and the ClamAV Research Team. This feature will allow users to optionally submit statistics to us about what they detect in the field, which will then be used to determine what types of malware/viruses are the most detected in the field and in what geographic area.
