ClamXav is a free virus checker for Mac OS X. It uses a slightly modified version of the tried, tested, and very popular clamav open source antivirus engine as a back-end.
What's New in This Release:
· New version of clamav 0.80
· Check for new clamXav and engine version on startup
· Auto-update definitions on startup
· Scheduled scanning and updating - by far the most requested feature!
· Able to use any custom installation of ClamAV
· Allow non-admin users to update virus definitions - thanks to Barijaona Ramaholimihaso for the tip
· Correct permissions on /usr and /usr/local when installing my precompiled engine
· Avoid scanning .dmg files
· Progress bar
· Alert (beep & icon bounce) on virus find
· Button to set quarantine folder now separated from checkbox
· Textual representation of quarantine folder
· Buttons now toggle between start and stop to allow room for "Preferences" button on main window
· Version field at bottom of main window showing clamXav version, engine version and date of most recent definition update
· Fixed display problems if never been run before (ie. no prefs file present) and engine hadn't been installed yet.
· Disallow scanning root (/) as it causes the scanning engine to crash or loop endlessly
· Virus definition update now shows more accurate/helpful success/error messages
· Online Help and Documentation
