[nvda] Re: Antivirus accessibility comparisons

Hello guys,
I have received a tip for quite nice open-source and accessible antivirus software. It's based off of ClamAV engine ( http://www.clamav.net/ ). It uses Wxwidgets for the user interface. It's called ClamWin Antivirus and can be found at http://www.clamwin.com . The only a bit of warning I feel it's appropriate: it does not have resident protection like AVG or Nod 32 it is just a scanner which can be integrated into the Windows explorer. Also if the virus database is appropriate for most mail servers where ClamAV is runing I think it may also work for the end user. Here's the direct download link: http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/clamwin/clamwin-0.93-setup.exe

   Between the free and commercial AV solutions (considering the current AVG 8 
issue with JAWS and NVDA), is there any product that is the best for screen 
readers, or at least somewhat accessible ?
