Free Anti-Virus for WHM

[nom-de-plume]

Just installed Windows Home Server - it seems to be working well. However, I have been unable to find anti-virus software to work on it. I had hoped to use Security Essentials but this seems only to be for Xp, Vista and Win7.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

ClamAV was also working on a WHS version. Details here:

You should be aware that the ClamAV option doesn't have auto-update or on-access scan capabilities. It is a full manual update and scan implementation. I'm also pretty sure it can't even remove a virus (only notify).

If you need a full AV solution on your WHS box (most people don't), look at Avast. It's not free, but you can use the Avast trial version for 90 days. It works very well. If you're like most people and you don't browse web pages or open files on your WHS machine, then Clam (or nothing) is just fine.
