Yeah - I'm smiling too - 72MB for an entire month for ~100 machines on a
network - that's just bloody cool bananas!

Calculations:
Machines with ClamAV - 100
Updates - 1 per hour
daily-xxxx.cdiff size - ~1024 bytes
Machine on-time - 24 hrs

Bandwidth per day = ~2.4MB
Bandwidth per month (31 days) - ~72MB

Bloody terrific!!!

I don't see any other AV package coming anywhere close!
