I read on the Macafee site that there is one for linux now, but the
company I work for uses Linux for mail servers on quiet a few clients
sites and are looking for a Virus Scanner that will scan incoming mail
attachments so that it can clean any viruses before they reach
workstations. A linux based scanner would also be useful for those people
who would use a Linux box as a file server (using Samba) could also set it
up to scan all files on the file server and hence stop the spread of
viruses across the network.
