As others said before: use it with caution ! We used it for a while 
but after the Klez.H outbreak I switched to Sophos. If you do serious 

business I think it's worth investing in a commercial scanner (I 
never thought I would say that since I'm a free software junkie)

You can download my filter script (perl) tailored for ClamAV from

http://members.chello.at/goesta.smekal/code/

I have got an updated version in productive use (with Sophos) which I 

will post if there is any kind of interest out there ...

  hope that helps,

P.S.: sorry, Toby, you get this double, since I seem to forget to 
post answers to the list instead of the author lately ...
