There happened to be a posting on the MailScanner mailing list today from 
someone using ClamAV and F-Prot side by side on a mail server (so every mail 
gets scanned by both A-V engines).   Their results show that during the past 
month, ClamAV caught more viruses than F-Prot did.

Regards,

Antony.

"We are running F-Prot and ClamAV.  We pulled stats for the two over the last 
month and I was surprised to find that the open source ClamAV caught more 
viruses than F-Prot.  Since we were a bit wary of installing ClamAV, I 
thought I'd post these stats in case others felt mildly concerned the way we 
did when we first considered ClamAV."

How should I know if it works?   That's what beta testers are for.   I only 
coded it.
