The new ClamAV for Windows is the result of a partnership between Immunet Corporation (http://www.immunet.com) and Sourcefire, Inc. (http://www.sourcefire.com). It is designed to provide the ClamAV community with a free Windows-specific Anti-Virus (AV) solution using an advanced Cloud-based protection mechanism. You can use ClamAV For Windows as a stand-alone, host-based AV solution, or in conjunction with your pre-installed AV solution to provide enhanced detection for the latest malware threats.
Say goodbye to the days of watching AV software drain your memory and processing speed. Immunet’s unique Cloud-based technologies allow the ClamAV application to leverage the power of the Cloud to drive the AV engine. When you use ClamAV for Windows, you save system resources for the tasks they really want to run, like games and business applications.
ClamAV for Windows utilizes advanced Cloud-based and community-based detection methods. Developed by Immunet, these detection methods leverage the computers of your friends, family and a worldwide global community to harness their collective knowledge for securing your PC. Every time someone in this collective community encounters a threat, everyone else in the community gains protection from that same threat in real time. You no longer have to rely on the isolated security of your current Anti-Virus vendor. You are able to protect your friends and family while being better protected yourself. This is exactly what we designed ClamAV for Windows to do. By providing a fast and light layer of virus detection, and linking everyone in a global community, we harness a security sum that is far greater than its individual parts, we call this Collective Immunity.
Immunet placed ClamAV into their Cloud infrastructure alongside their Ethos detection engine, and several other detection technologies. By combining all these technologies, and utilizing the power of community-based detection, we feel we have the most effective Anti-Virus technology on the market. And it only gets better with every user that installs and utilizes our technology.

Thank you for the download link. Just curious can ClamAV be on the same level like Norton or AVP? They do eat a lot of memory but then again I can be sure that my PC is secured, what about ClamAV?
Its light on the system resource.
Even though ClamAV is Cloud-based, can rogue anti-spyware programs or a rookit block it from performing a detection?
Maybe but its better than without any AV-software
Thank you for the link. Im gonna try ClamAV and hope that it works at the ranks of norton and other virus softwares.

Thank you for the download link. It worked well for me on my anti virus system and it hasnt slowed down my compute at all.
This is really interesting because I have only tried Immunet Protect as my anti-virus software. Maybe I could use new ClamAV for Windows in the future. In this way, I could determine on how this could help me to detech malware threats.

I am using the same antivirus for my windows. The problem with ClamAV is it is a manual process which is great if you want your windows machine to actually work at a reasonable speed but no good if you forget to a scan once a week. But then it depends on what you get up to on the internet and if you actually open email attachments. I still expect a full featured ClamAV for the Windows environment because this would be an absolutely extraordinary move onto the antivirus market.
