'How to install ClamAV®-devel from the Git sources on macOS'. When you want to build ClamAV-devel from the Git sources, autotools are now requied.įor further information, see the following section: I'm running the latest stable release ClamAV 0.103.0 on macOS 11.0 Big Sur now.ĬlamAV 0.103.0 is available on the Download page of ClamavNet, and the release note is here! I've tested for building ClamAV (from version 0.90.x to version 0.103.x) on Mac OS X 10.4 through macOS 11.0 Big Sur. I'm running ClamXav Sentry as 'launch agent' with ClamAV antivirus scanning engine of my own custom build. You can protect yourself slightly by not using VPC's 'shared folders', but that's a useful feature which you shouldn't have to be without.īuilding ClamAV® on Mac OS X 10.4 through macOS 11.0 Big Sur VPC will run any application you tell it to, virus or no virus, it doesn't know the difference. This gives you the opportunity to avoid the file altogether or at least copy and paste any vital information into a new document and send that instead.ĭon't forget, if you run VirtualPC you can still become infected and lose valuable data on your Mac even though technically you're running Windows inside a sandbox. If you then forward that document to a less wise person who has not turned off the macro support, then you have most likely just sent him a shiny new Pandora's Box with a sign saying 'Open this end'!įlippancy aside, I'm sure you get the idea: check the file before opening and/or sending it on to someone else. However, this doesn't mean we should get complacent about checking incoming email attachments or web downloads, for two reasons.įirstly, there's no guarantee that we Mac users will continue to enjoy the status quo, but more importantly, the majority of the computing world use machines running MS Windows, for which an enormous quantity of viruses exist, so we must be vigilant in checking the files we pass on to our friends and colleagues etc.įor example, if you're a wise person and you've turned MS Office's macro support off then you're not going to notice that virus which is hiding inside this month's edition of Extreme Ironing.doc which your friend sent you.
ClamXav uses as a back-end a slightly modified version of the tried, tested, and very popular ClamAv open source antivirus engine.īack in the days before OS X, the number of viruses which attacked Macintosh users totalled somewhere between about 60 and 80.
