ClamWin 0.95 is a free antivirus that uses the GNU license (completely free and open to modification software). Two key features of ClamWin are the open source capability and the ability to be installed on any version of Windows including server editions. This is in contrast to almost all other consumer antiviruses excluding PC tools antivirus. Since ClamWin AV is an open source project, anyone can contribute to the software. This includes adding new virus definitions and even new program functionality. In fact, within the last eight days there have been eight code additions to the antivirus engine.
Virus Detection and Scanning:
Since ClamWin 0.95 is based on user contributions, virus definitions will be frequently updated and have a human touch to them. What I mean is that ClamWin users might get so frustrated with a particular virus that they will suggest a custom tailored virus definition to fix the problem. This process of constantly tweaking the AV engine and definitions produces a highly effective antivirus solution. In fact, many users report that ClamWin 0.95 detects few false positives and even viruses that several Norton versions had previously missed.
