Just implement this very good open source scanner on your serverClam Anti Virus.

You just need to set it to scan the dataroot directory on a frequent basis.  Moodle doesn't have to know about it.

Hi Martin,

This program is really good news.  I will check this out later this week.  I had some problems understanding how to install it & how to get it to work with the data directory.

Thanks Martin!

How does it handle infected files?

Is there a way to send an error message to the user automatically or does the site admin get notified and send the message?
