I'm looking for a way to have ClamAV be on a bootable USB drive independent of the computer's operating system drive.

I've found how to make a "ClamWin" bootable drive, but I just want a Linux ClamAV one. Am I talking out of my bum? Is there a Linux ClamAV bootable USB version?

Hello davebit. As you may recall, this is the ClamWin forums, not the ClamAV forums, however, you may try wanting to look on portableapps.com to see if there is one there. Please note that the portable versions on that site are not made from the original development team and are made from third party companies.
