The question was all about linking and can have no other subtext, premise, or context, and was based on information I saw on the website. That site shows only libclamav in the diagram. Even if it had shown usage with clamd the question is still valid, and one a programmer should understand. Now I'm so damned curious I've downloaded it and created a Linux sandbox to try it out on. dp _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
