Replacing ClamAV
« on: December 20, 2006, 04:30:04 AM »
Hello to all

Does anybody know how can I replace ClamAV by any other AntiVirus solution? For example, Avira o F-Prot. In other words, I'd like to change my antivirus e-mail engine. Is it possible? I'm using SME 7.

Thx.

I'm curious as to why you want to.

To replace, disable clamav via the configuration database, and then do whatever you need to do to install and use your other "solution".

Me too.  Why would you want to replace a system that works?

I have already done some research and only ask questions if I still can't work it out.

Hello Charlie!

Avira works better. It detects more viruses. Every day I reporte at least 2 new malware to ClamAV. Also Avira's engine is very fast.
It's my opinion.

Could you describe me, please step by step how could I disable ClamAV?
Thx.
