Sure, but ... why not compete in some cases ?  There is no way of course to bit any 
serious AV program like Panda ,but also there are many people or even non profit 
organizations like universitets, schools etc which would be interested in good AV 
protection without yearly fees even without some features like repairing files.
Email server protection maybe not enought, but with plugin for email clients like 
Outlook Express,Opera,Thunderbird,Mozilla (or proxy server) and a real time Windows 
monitor,hmm...Looks better ;-)

I'd like this idea - please give me an ftp account if possible.
By the way - do You interested also in old ms-dos viruses not recognized by ClamAV ? 
What is practical/theoretical limit for  signatures added to bases ? I think there are 
as many as 20000 or even more missing entries for old 
viruses/jokes/trojans/backdoors.Could this be possible to automatically add signatures 
using some sigtool or else if I or others send this missing entries ?
