Graphical Interfaces
Since ClamAV does not include a graphical user interface (GUI) but instead is run from the command line, a number of third-party developers have written GUIs for the application for various platforms and uses.
These include:
- Linux
- ClamTk using gtk2-perl; project is named for the Tk libraries that were used when it began
- KlamAV for KDE
- wbmclamav is a webmin module to manage Clam AntiVirus
- Mac OS X
- ClamXav is a freeware port which includes a graphical user interfaces and has a "sentry" service which can watch for changes or new files in many cases. There is also an update and scanning scheduler through a cron job facilitated by the graphical interface. ClamXav can detect malware specific to Mac OS X, Unix, or Windows, but malware definitions for Mac OS X are updated less often, with sometimes up to a year between updates. However, the ClamXav application and the ClamAV engine, are updated regularly.
- Tiger Cache Cleaner is shareware software which installs and presents a graphic interface for using ClamAV to scan for viruses, and provides other unrelated functions.
- Microsoft Windows
- Immunet
- ClamWin
- CS Antivirus
- Graugon AntiVirus
