Hello,
i want to use ClamWin in a WindowsXP Network with several computers. I use the Firefox-Addon, for scanning downloads from www. But is there also an possibility to scan files, during copying from USB Pendrive to the local harddisk automatically?
Thanks, Martin

You might look into the ClamSentinel front-end for ClamWin, which allows ClamWin to scan a hard drive in real-time, including USB drives. It does not provide as complete security as a kernel-mode scanner would, but it hooks important Windows APIs that are used by malware.

Please note that ClamSentinel is a separate project that is not connected with ClamWin. It was designed for older computers but works fine with XP and Vista (maybe Win 7 too). It is available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/clamsentinel/ on the web. There is a new version being tested that is much easier to configure than the present one.

Regards,
