Hi, seannachie.
Personally, I wouldn't give ClamAV the time of day. Too many 'false positives', for one thing...
I've been using Comodo's AV for Linux for some time now. It runs from a GUI, and also gives you the facility for email filtering.
I've made up an SFS package from the .deb package, with permissions adjusted to suit Puppy's 'running-as-root' model. If you install the .deb package, it will break functionality in certain things, such as CUPS, since Ubuntu's package assumes running as a normal user in a multi-user environment, and sets permissions accordingly.
I don't know if we're allowed to post links to file-hosting sites, but that's where all my hundreds of Puppy packages are.....at my MediaFire a/c.
(Note to moderators; I don't know if you're aware, but the majority of really useful Puppy packages tend to be hosted at Puppy Forum members' file-hosting accounts. Puppy being a 'do-ocracy, and 'Puppians' being positively encouraged to contribute where they can, many of us provide Puppy-specific packages for other Puppians.....and, of course, you need somewhere to host them.)
If it's allowable, here's the link:-

Hopefully, you'll find it useful.
Mike.

Puppy linux 2.17 missing linux kernel headers in it's devx_217.sfs ?
Virtualbox won't compile?
First install libsdl-1.2.9.pet and qt-3.3.6.pet from the pet installer.
Next:
ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributio ... modules-2/
download/copy devx_217.sfs and kernel-source_217.sfs to your /mnt/home directory (same folder as pup_save.2fs).
Add the devx_217.sfs and kernel-source_217.sfs files to your boot manager: START - SYSTEM - BOOTMANAGER
Reboot.
Next:
in a console type:
# cc
and you should get:
cc: no input files
In this case -congrats!!! - GCC is installed!
Next:
download the any linux distribution from the Virtualbox website:
http://www.virtualbox.org/download/1.4. ... ux_x86.run
Next:
issue from a terminal (assuming you downloaded to your /root/my-documents folder):
/root/my-documents/VirtualBox_1.4.0_Linux_x86.run install
After install has completed, the installer will recommend a change to your rc.d - do it
Next:
edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv as text and delete the lines 159 to 164:
chown :$groupname $dev || {
rmmod $modname
fail 'Cannot change owner $groupname for device $dev'
}
Next: start up virtualbox driver
/etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv setup
Finally:
You can now start virtualbox at the command prompt:
# VirtualBox
: )
[edit]
I have to start the driver again after a reboot:
Start up virtualbox driver:
/etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv setup
then
VirtualBox
