ClamAV

[Duda Nogueira]

As Myles said, if you are trying to scan AND repair a windows XP/others on a
NTFS partition using a 6.06 box, you'll only be able to see all the files,
but as you don't have permission to write, you wont be able to change this
files into the partition.

You can also try to run the clamav on the verbose mode, so it can give you
more infos about the viruses and/or why the clamav isn't deleting the
infected files.

Correct-me if i'm wrong, but you can do this with the

freshclam -v

PS: On the all brand new Ubuntu 7.10, the ntfs-3g is enabled by default, so
after mounted, you can have write access to NTFS partitions :) Coool!

Good luck!
