+- AntiVir
+
+  An "antivir" binary (version 2.1.0-28 or later) and a valid SERVER
+  license are required.  Please check these requirements by means of
+  the "antivir --version" command.
+ 
+  No service needs to be started up, the vscan-antivir.so plugin
+  itself will handle the scanner processes.  Although it's advised
+  to setup a cronjob which runs regularly scheduled updates for the
+  AntiVir product.  The samba service does not need to be restarted
+  nor need the users reconnect to shares after AntiVir updates.
+ 
+  The correct pathname to the "antivir" binary needs to be setup in
+  the vscan-antivir.conf file.  The binary's name usually is
+  "/usr/lib/AntiVir/antivir".
+
+  Archive related settings can be customized to prevent DoS
+  situations.  This is why archive support is disabled by default.
+  When enabled, archives will not be scanned completely when they
+  exceed one of the specified limits.  A limit of 0 will disable the
+  appropriate condition (i.e. means "unlimited").
+
+  By default only viruses are scanned for.  Detection of other types
+  of unwanted software can be enabled with the appropriate "detect"
+  options.  But you should make sure to adjust the notification
+  message which is sent to the remote users since in this situation
+  not every alert is an "INFECTION" with a "VIRUS".
+
+  The vscan-antivir.so plugin is capable of handling files with non
+  printable and other special characters (umlauts and such) in their
+  names.  Unicode support has not been tested.
