     Do you wish to say, that, for example, OpenOffice edits texts and
stores own dicuments under Windows differently, than under Linux? Or you
wish to say, that OOo is simpler, than ClamAV?

     Even IF ClamAV under finds is dumber/smarter, than under *ix, you may
show me two lists - lists of formats of archives and exepackers under
Windows and under *ix. I wish _this_ answer (or link to such information),
not the essays "how hard to support multiplatform code" or useless "read the
documentation" words. And don't send me to archives (which I don't know
where to find and can't surf without online) - especially because there was
no given to me requested info.
