Clam Antivirus is een antivirusprogramma voor Linux en Freebsd dat zich voornamelijk richt op de integratie met mailservers voor het scannen van berichten en bijlagen. Naast een antivirusdaemon bestaat Clamav uit een commandline-scanner en een tool voor het automatisch bijwerken van de virusdefinities via internet. De ontwikkelaars hebben de eerste release candidate van versie 0.93 uitgebracht en voorzien van de volgende aankondiging:
Version 0.93rc1
