Recommendation Please

Hi,

I been looking for another Free AV engine. I am currently
using Clamd, 
and AVG (But not tied into Amavis, do to the license).

I have am wanting to know what other free AV would you
recommend, that 
easy to install, can easy be updated and is FREE!

Thanks,

Payne

AFAIK there is no other free AV program that can be used
with
amavisd-new in a server environment. The free AV programs I
have seen
are for use on a single personal computer in a non
commercial
environment.

For example, BitDefender has a free Linux scanner:
http://www.bitdefender.com/site/view/Download-Fr
ee-Products.html

But the license specifically states:

  2. Home or Personal Use License. This license is free of
charge and  it  can
  be  retrieved from the BitDefender website after filling
in a short form. It
  only allows the product to be used for personal purposes,
with no commercial
  implications whatsoever, under the terms of the EULA. For
example, under the
  Personal License, you are allowed to scan your personal 
laptop  or  desktop
  computer  but  YOU  ARE  NOT  ALLOWED  TO  USE  THE 
PRODUCT  IN  A BUSINESS
  ENVIRONMENT SUCH AS AN OFFICE COMPUTER OR A COMPANY
SERVER.

But I guess that doesn't apply to the Linux Console Free
Edition v7.1 from
2005, that still runs on one of my server. The accompanying
LICENSE file has
no such clauses.  Ofcourse
it's quite slow for any busier server..

That license stated:
APPLICATION SOFTWARE. You may install and use one copy of
the
BitDefender, or any prior version for
the same operating system, on a single computer terminal.
The primary
user of the computer on which the
BitDefender is installed may make one additional (i.e.
second) copy
for his or her exclusive use on a
portable computer.

Which was rather ambiguous (what exactly is a 'terminal'?).
It looks
like the folks at BitDefender realized it was not worded
well, and
therefore with subsequent releases they clarifed it.
